Forecasts

Sea Eagle (13/8), Fleetfootsoldier (7/2), Hemight (11/2), Ze Do Asfalto (6/1), Georg Zhukov (11/1), Secret Rock (16/1), Timandi (16/1), Calamint (20/1), Roman Harry (28/1), She's Ideal (33/1), Rock Basher (50/1), Shining Aitch (50/1), Western Dreamer (66/1), Munroh (66/1)

SEA EAGLE is a classy sort for a claimer and gets the vote under Shane Foley. Ze Do Asfalto has already tasted success at claiming level here this year and is second choice ahead of Fleetfootsoldier and Secret Rock.
