Forecasts

Benny's Secret (4/1), No No Mac (4/1), Valadom (9/2), My Manekineko (8/1), Bletchley Castle (8/1), Minella For Me (17/2), Acdc (11/1), Vice Et Vertu (12/1), Federici (20/1)

Valadom jumped his rivals into submission at Catterick 10 days ago and is much-respected despite going up in the ratings, though he may get company with No No Mac in this field and they could set this up for something else. Vice Et Vertu typically goes well fresh and therefore commands respect but this might fall the way of MY MANEKINEKO. He's put up some rock-solid efforts in recent months and deserves a change of fortune after some near misses. Gavin Brouder's claim assists and they have a good chance if finding their best together.
