Forecasts

Reeceltic (6/4), Arabescato (10/3), Russian Rumour (5/1), Militry Decoration (13/2), Smith (15/2), Genesius (8/1), Gustav Holst (14/1), Central City (25/1)

REECELTIC has gained all 3 of his wins at Lingfield and a 5 lb rise for last month's ready success looks within range. Arabescato is capable of bouncing back eased in grade.
