Forecasts

Mohandas (9/4), Connoisseur (9/2), Porfirio (5/1), Mississippi Spice (8/1), Teatime Tipple (17/2), Thambi (9/1), Phaka Imali (9/1), Rafiki (10/1), Brave Voyager (12/1), Lucretius (14/1)

MOHANDAS makes plenty of appeal. Connoisseur is taken for the forecast, while Mississippi Spice is perhaps the most interesting other runner in the line up.
