Forecasts

Unique Journey (10/3), Gerrit's Gem (4/1), Go Athletico (11/2), Staysound Susie (13/2), Sarahmae (8/1), Back Down Under (9/1), Jon Riggens (10/1), Tropical Retreat (11/1), Ze Do Asfalto (16/1), Germanese (22/1)

Verdict

A case can be made for a few of these but STAYSOUND SUSIE took a big step back in the right direction when fourth at Cork recently and can now capitalise on a lenient mark. Unique Journey and Gerrit's Gem fought out a good finish over C&D last time and should be right in the mix again. Sarahmae completes the shortlist.
