Forecasts

Diderot (2/1), Hype (9/4), Windsor Pass (6/1), Alex D (13/2), Business Speak (9/1), No Patience (14/1), Let Me Pass (18/1)

DIDEROT and Hype both lack a recent run but are last-time-out winners with the scope to rate higher. On what they've achieved, the former looks the better handicapped of the pair, so gets the nod.
