Forecasts

Courtbrack Boy (10/3), Blue Reed (7/2), Chemdawg (4/1), Finnicky Filly (11/2), Koolio Kate (13/2), Back To Cali (9/1), Robindevidastar (12/1), Bohemian Bay (22/1), Bite That (22/1), Opposite Ends (33/1), Clarin Breeze (50/1)

CHEMDAWG is holding her form well so gets the vote with plenty arriving with a point to prove. Blue Reed is becoming well treated so is next best ahead of Courtbrack Boy, who can do better but needs to settle down.
