Forecasts

Serious Chat (4/9), Striking A Pose (11/4), Royal Rhythm (13/2)

Unlike his other 2 rivals, SERIOUS CHAT arrives here on the up and with further progress possible over this trip, he can go in again. With Royal Rhythm well behind the selection last time, Striking A Pose can give the McCain runner most to think about.
