Forecasts

Key Of Magic (13/8), Sucette (7/4), Magic Art (5/1), Hidden Secret (6/1), Diamondaires Will (14/1), Raasil (18/1), Volcanic Rock (20/1), Catstyle (33/1), Mr Precocious (40/1), Willoch (50/1), Charming Life (50/1), Cat Belling (66/1)

KEY OF MAGIC should be suited by this surface and can open his account at the expense of the once-raced Sucette. Hidden Secret leads the way for minor money.
