Forecasts

Too Much To Ask (4/1), Dancing Doug (4/1), Seapoint (13/2), Christmas In Usa (13/2), Tawseef (15/2), Gripper (8/1), Coup De Gold (10/1), Headscarf Lil (12/1), Tokaramore (16/1), Fahad (16/1), Russell In Gold (22/1), Black Label (50/1)

TOO MUCH TO ASK has become well treated and drops in grade back at a track where he's produced his best efforts, so a chance is taken on him in an open race. In-form pair Dancing Doug and Seapoint should be thereabouts once again.
