Forecasts

Traces (13/8), Vernichey (10/3), Hard To Play (6/1), Enjoy The View (15/2), Coldhardcash (15/2), Filippo (8/1), Great Shaka (8/1), Di Mazzio (33/1)

COLDHARDCASH continues in good form and can land the spoils. Di Mazzio has the best claims of the rest, while Traces looks the one for the minor money.
