Forecasts

Shabu Shabu (2/1), Ottoman (10/3), Respiro Solitario (4/1), Emily Rebecca (11/2), Split Silk (10/1), Abstract Art (14/1), Cuda Been A Rowlex (22/1), Aurelius Maximus (25/1), Grande Armee (28/1), Helaali (28/1), Dance No More (28/1), Hot Shot Lawyer (40/1), Leading Star Girl (100/1)

OTTOMAN is unexposed over this trip and with cheekpieces likely to help him, he could be the answer. Respiro Solitario seems sure to give it another good go, with Shabu Shabu the potential improver now handicapping.
