Forecasts

Leo Davinci (2/1), Sparkling Diamond (10/3), Bobby Joe Leg (11/2), Urban Highway (10/1), Ten Chants (10/1), Thaki (11/1), Billyoakes (16/1), Sarah's Verse (22/1), Leo Minor (28/1), Gmasha (33/1), Darwina (40/1), Pearl Of India (80/1)

This could go the way of LEO DAVINCI, who has been shaping up well in more competitive events and could get the rub of the green this time. Leo Minor and Bobby Joe Leg are also considered.
