Forecasts

Del Parco (5/2), Bonjour Steve (4/1), Picket Line (11/2), Secret Potion (6/1), Gold Hunter (7/1), Pastfact (8/1), Oeil De Tigre (8/1), Jacksonfire (10/1), Air Of York (22/1), Tally's Song (50/1), Polkadot Princess (50/1)

Very ordinary stuff for the finale and only a small interest on DEL PARCO is recommended. Bonjour Steve and Pastfact are others with similar claims and appeal for a sporting punt in a combination forecast. That said, support for Gold Hunter would also have solid foundations and the top weight is another worth bearing in mind.
