Forecasts

An Laochmor (9/4), Havana Notion (7/2), Realtin Fantasy (9/2), Skillman Ave (5/1), Ukiyo (8/1), This Ain't Texas (11/1), Theriverrunsdeep (16/1), Cavalier Approach (25/1), Twinkling Toes (33/1)

Verdict

Hard to make a compelling case for any of these but SKILLMAN AVE drops slightly in class and with the return to 5f worth exploring, she gets the tentative vote. Theriverrunsdeep has been given a major chance by the assessor if she's ready to go, with An Laochmor also of interest.

  1. SKILLMAN AVE (IRE)
