Forecasts

Pogue (5/4), Highway Companion (9/4), Getaway Gerry (5/1), The Blame Game (16/1), Elf De Re (20/1), A Ladies Milan (20/1), Do Not Disturb (25/1), Cilluirid (33/1), Zamarkhan (40/1), Kilfinan Bay (40/1), My Son John (50/1), Frankies Fire (50/1), Sweet Flora (66/1), Fair Lady (150/1)

Verdict

Pogue looks the obvious choice on what he has achieved so far, but he hasn't yet taken an opportunity and that developing profile is a concern. The suggestion, therefore, is HIGHWAY COMPANION. Admittedly, he will need to improve on what we saw from him here earlier in the month, but he could so do with a hood now fitted for assistance. The Blame Game, Getaway Gerry and Elf De Re are others of interest.
  1. Highway Companion
  2. Pogue
  3. The Blame Game
