Forecasts

Tomarlo (5/2), Billie Be Quick (7/2), El Fontenaro (13/2), Mini Mai (7/1), Taudeni (17/2), Asdana (11/1), Tilly's Company (11/1), Therussiancomposer (14/1), Tino Pai (14/1), Far At Sea (22/1), Arctic Steps (66/1)

TOMARLO ended his 2-y-o campaign on the up and has continued on a northward trajectory this year, leaving the impression that he may well have more to offer. He gets the nod ahead of Tino Pai and Mini Mai.
