Forecasts

Latin America (5/6), Genchev (4/1), Mergus Serrator (8/1), Now Maybe (10/1), Huff'n'puff (10/1), Teologia (10/1), Santa Bravado (25/1), Battle Of Maldon (25/1), Youcansaythatagain (25/1), Glen Echo (40/1), Cascade Canyon (40/1), Amethyst Stone (50/1), Croi Gra (66/1), Dreamkeeper (80/1), Kingcharles (80/1), Good Man Jack (80/1), Tintinabulla (100/1), African Affair (200/1), Fay Og (250/1)

A huge field but only a handful of these make any serious appeal. Preference is for LATIN AMERICA, who made an encouraging start to his career when finishing runner-up at the Curragh 4 weeks ago and with improvement on the cards, he can go one better. Now Maybe is put forward as his biggest danger on return, with Genchev and Huff'n'puff another couple worth mentioning, also.
