Forecasts

Matsuri (11/10), Atlantic Convoy (7/2), Fox Legacy (9/2), Signalman (10/1), Watfah (14/1), Kildare Legend (20/1), Biznieta Power (25/1), Always A Star (33/1), Alentejo (50/1), Sweet Painted Lady (150/1)

MATSURI looks a promising 3-y-o for Roger Varian and should take the beating if ready to go. Atlantic Convoy could have a lot more to offer and is respected. Watfah heads up a trio of interesting newcomers from top yards.
