Forecasts

Celtillus (5/2), What A Cracker (5/1), Baltic Beat (11/2), Linda Loves Lace (7/1), Precious Stone (8/1), God Of Thunder (11/1), Orchid Express (11/1), Harlequin Jack (12/1), Hidden Influence (12/1), Bold Dreamer (12/1), The Carpenter (18/1), For Luck Sake (20/1), Microbe (25/1), Riga D'Ora (33/1)

WHAT A CRACKER quite clearly has the best form and has a clear chance. Linda Loves Lace could emerge as the chief threat, while Celtillus is another who could figure.
