Forecasts

Excellent Team (5/2), Craggaknock (3/1), Red Tornado (10/3), Broughtons Rhythm (7/2), Rossetti (5/1), Burning Heat (10/1), Favorite Girl (14/1)

FAVORITE GIRL wouldn't have the scope of one or two of these but this looks a suitable opportunity and has the service of the excellent Harry Reed to take a bit more weight off her back. Red Tornado looks handicapped to the hilt but will find this easier and can go close. Rossetti would be a massive danger if bouncing back to his best and ant marker move should be heeded. Broughtons Rhythm looks to have been fairly treated by the handicapper and has chances too.
