Forecasts

Storm Commander (11/4), Path Of Choice (10/3), Humble Tune (5/1), Sirnihaallongsword (6/1), Africa's Rock (7/1), Kuznetsov (7/1), Phantomoftheforest (7/1), Admiral's Ransom (15/2), Manchester Fighter (22/1), Dirty Martini (28/1), Meeneera (33/1), Absolu Noir (33/1), Psychedelic Eric (66/1)

STORM COMMANDER has been in decent form of late and seems the one they have to beat. Humble Tune has to be feared, while Africa's Rock should go well too.
