Forecasts

Swiss Army Officer (5/2), Airlift (5/1), Aced It (5/1), Monzoon (7/1), Gulf Of Aidan (17/2), Quick Quick (10/1), Strip Light (10/1), Salinity (12/1), Majestic Jewel (20/1), Keep The Receipt (22/1), Royal Hideaway (22/1), Alwisaam (50/1), Namedinlockdown (100/1), Effernock Dieubon (150/1)

ACED IT doesn't boast consistency as his strong suit, yet he's undoubtedly a player on the pick of his form, particularly his Bellewstown second on his penultimate start, and he shades the vote. Swiss Army Offcer and Gulf of Aidan are others fancied to feature.
