Forecasts

Global Movement (2/1), Galaxy Explorer (7/2), Connoisseur (9/2), Sail To The Moon (11/2), Richardthefearless (11/2), Pongola (7/1), Circle Of Grace (17/2), Count Marsh (16/1), Magic Maverick (28/1)

MAGIC MAVERICK is worth chancing. Count Marsh can emerge best of the remainder, while Pongola also demands a closer look.
