Forecasts

Fate Of Fortune (4/5), Tam's Knight (5/1), Limerick Lace (6/1), Smorgasbord (8/1), Chara Sands (9/1), Blazing Fury (9/1), City Of Love (9/1), Top Gun (20/1), Who Blinked (22/1), Blazing Beauty (22/1)

FATE OF FORTUNE couldn't justify market support last time out, but is worth giving another chance to leave that form behind. Limerick Lace is the most realistic option for second, while Blazing Fury also merits respect.
