Forecasts

Bonito Cavalo (10/3), Giselles Izzy (7/2), Kats Bob (4/1), Caribbean Sunset (13/2), Autumn Flight (17/2), Sharrabang (10/1), Aclaim To Fame (16/1), Guest List (20/1), Shabaaby (22/1), Lancashire Life (25/1), Wee Fat Mac (25/1), Turbo Command (28/1), Nodsasgoodasawink (50/1), Mrs Happy (66/1), Henery Hawk (80/1)

The removal of cheekpieces looks a good move from connections of BONITO CAVALO and he's capable of opening his account from this modest mark. You can set your watch by Giselles Izzy at this level so she's of interest, along with Kats Bob.
