Forecasts

Crepuscolo (7/2), Circle Of Grace (9/2), Step Into It (9/2), Stop The Traffic (5/1), Bob Lee Swagger (8/1), Flag Bearer (9/1), The Merciful (9/1), Red Sparrow (12/1), Hat Furious (12/1), Full Go (16/1), Pomozelous (28/1)

THE MERCIFUL should give a good account. Hat Furious is probably the main danger, while Bob Lee Swagger is another likely to be on the premises.
