Forecasts

Graffiti (5/2), Harbour Vision (7/2), Open Choice (9/2), Island Native (5/1), Coolree (9/1), Pessoa (9/1), Soi Dao (16/1), Solanna (22/1), Lady Lavina (40/1)

GRAFFITI has been knocking on the door of late, doing best of those ridden close up when a close third at Chelmsford last time, so tops the shortlist over Harbour Vision and Island Native.
