Forecasts

Chica Power (10/3), Eighty Eight (4/1), Golden Days (4/1), Tynamite (15/2), Hezahunk (11/1), River Derwent (12/1), Baalbec Beauty (12/1), Jalo (14/1), Airgead (16/1), Rattletheonionbag (16/1), Gilded Moon (16/1), Millieblue (20/1), Clarinbridge (28/1), Un Bacio Ancora (28/1), Brookie Cookie (28/1), Just Another (50/1), Alfarida (66/1)

Having performed with credit in C&D handicaps the last twice, GOLDEN DAYS could be the answer. Eighty Eight has dipped to an attractive mark and is feared most, while Hezahunk, River Derwent and Tynamite are others to consider.
