Forecasts

War Reporter (2/1), Mount Darwin (5/1), Full Go (7/1), Redlightgreenlight (7/1), Tracksuit Dave (7/1), Repetition (7/1), Gimmethespotlight (10/1), Guerilla Warfare (20/1), Arumugam (20/1), Carnelo (20/1), Stop The Traffic (50/1), Oklahoma Twister (50/1)

REDLIGHTGREENLIGHT has been hard to fault in recent outings and seems the one they have to beat. Mount Darwin could be the one to profit if the selection underperforms, while Repetition also requires a closer look.
