Forecasts

Broadspear (8/13), Manaslu (4/1), Cubana Habana (8/1), Reel Prospect (12/1), Yellow Bear (14/1), Maguro (16/1), Drill To Dream (16/1), Bastille (25/1), Positive Force (33/1), Combatantcommander (33/1), Master Ellis (66/1), Sophiesticate (80/1), Bay Bee (125/1), Rainbow Rain (200/1), Marilla (200/1)

BROADSPEAR failed to meet expectations in the Convivial maiden at York in August, but he's well worth another chance to build on his promising debut at Salisbury on this return to action. Manaslu is entitled to improve on his opening effort at Wolverhampton, while Cubana Habana and Reel Prospect are a pair of interesting newcomers to keep an eye on in the betting.
