Forecasts

Fagan (5/2), Rocky's Treasure (10/3), Ami Desbois (7/2), Flying Angel (4/1), Guitar Pete (7/1), West Approach (15/2), Beau Bay (8/1), Red Infantry (8/1), Activial (22/1)

A few of these are past their peak but GUITAR PETE still looks as good as ever so could be the answer tried in calmer waters. Ami Desbois was an excellent second on his belated return at Kempton and is another to consider, while Fagan is also on the shortlist after his impressive win at Newbury.
