Forecasts

Paisley Park (6/4), Sea Virescent (7/2), Copper Mountain (5/1), Indlamu (11/2), Bold Jazz (7/1), Purple Panther (14/1), Elusive Swann (16/1), The Eighth Lord (22/1), Kingsley's Heart (25/1), Rise As One (33/1)

PAISLEY PARK is a smart prospect and is once more going to be hard to beat. Purple Panther looks the chief danger.
