Forecasts

City Cyclone (1/1), Nights Over Egypt (6/1), Split Elevens (7/1), Plumette (15/2), American Rose (8/1), Reputation (10/1), Midnight Flame (28/1), First Greyed (33/1), Lion's Dream (40/1)

SPLIT ELEVENS was in good form at this track in the autumn and is still on a handy mark back from a break, so he's preferred to the in-form City Cyclone, with Reputation also respected in an open-looking contest.
