Forecasts

Safe Travel (11/8), Ready Set Fire (7/4), Old Fashioned (11/2), Bumps Last Grind (15/2), Inspector James (8/1), Iconic Winter (17/2), Jet Querari (16/1), Ringho (33/1), Summer Shade (80/1), King Bluetooth (100/1)

SAFE TRAVEL holds the aces on the form book and will be very tough to beat. Old Fashioned will probably give the selection most to think about, while Inspector James should go well too.
