Forecasts

Kentucky Lassie (15/8), Engelandpark (5/2), Rockie Blue (5/1), Focal Point (6/1), Endizayo (9/1), Buddleja (9/1), Elusive Bomba (14/1), Waltzing Doll (16/1), World Of Diamonds (16/1), Endeared (18/1), Dynasty's Last (18/1), Manuriki (66/1), Iyoolbhanoyi (150/1)

FOCAL POINT looks marginally the pick of these. Kentucky Lassie should be involved at the business end as well, while Engelandpark is also in the running for some place money at least.
