Forecasts

Belgarion (15/8), Queen Supreme (5/1), Rainbow Bridge (6/1), Princess Calla (6/1), Golden Ducat (6/1), Do It Again (15/2), African Night Sky (22/1), Running Brave (33/1), Cirillo (40/1), Silver Operator (40/1), Sovereign Spirit (80/1)

QUEEN SUPREME has quite a significant edge on form and has the best chance. Running Brave is the next best alternative, while Rainbow Bridge is in the running for a share of the minor money.
