Forecasts

Trois Sept Huit (9/4), Sardinia Bay (10/3), All About Al (7/2), Flying Finley (15/2), North Point (8/1), Magical Place (11/1), Demanding Dave (14/1), Tanneron (14/1), Elusive Winter (16/1), Kelp Forest (25/1)

ALL ABOUT AL is well in front of these from a form perspective and has a clear chance. Trois Sept Huit is the most prudent second choice, while Tanneron is another that should go well.
