Forecasts

Morning Vicar (7/4), Fire Away (2/1), Captain Blackpearl (4/1), Collooney (9/2), Mint Gold (5/1), Broken Quest (8/1)

It's probably wise to think FIRE AWAY hasn't finished improving, and, fitted with cheekpieces back up in trip, the 4-timer is a real possibility in a race where it is easy to pick holes in his rivals. Collooney makes only his third start over fences and could be the danger ahead of Morning Vicar.
