Forecasts

Gainsford (7/4), Moon Rock (3/1), Via Salaria (9/2), Mr Cobbs (5/1), Aqua Bolt (8/1), Power Grid (14/1), Brave Tiger (16/1), Winter Flight (18/1), Baltimore Jack (50/1)

POWER GRID is in decent form right now and sets the bar. Moon Rock seems the most likely to capitalise if the selection fails to deliver, while Gainsford also looks good for a place.
