Forecasts

Flag Bearer (11/4), Nuclear Force (3/1), Guy Alexander (7/2), Crepuscolo (4/1), Ideal Future (7/1), Angel's Wish (8/1), Go Dream Machine (20/1), Callaburn (25/1)

FLAG BEARER continues to operate somewhere near current peak and should make a bold show. Ideal Future seemingly poses the biggest danger, while Go Dream Machine is another likely to be on the premises.
