Forecasts

Three C's (10/3), The Retriever (4/1), De Bruyne Horse (5/1), Holiday Magic (13/2), Last Date (7/1), Michele Strogoff (15/2), Corndavon Lad (10/1), Daddies Diva (22/1), Lets Go Lucky (25/1), Deeds Not Words (33/1)

THE RETRIEVER was headed only on the line under an aggressive ride by this jockey over C&D 16 days ago and should make another bold bid. Holiday Magic has made a positive start for this yard and is another to consider dropped to a 0-60, with Three C's and De Bruyne Horse best of the others.
