Forecasts

Kevin The Minion (7/4), Ghost Rider (3/1), Marve (6/1), Paxos (6/1), Time Frame (9/1), Driftwood (14/1), Musaytir (25/1), Pips Tune (33/1), Chelsea Showcase (100/1)

KEVIN THE MINION ran well here on his fibresand debut last month and he should be able to go one better in a similar event. Ghost Rider is an interesting newcomer that has to be respected. Marve outran his odds here last month and could make the frame.
