Forecasts

Don't Look Back (7/4), Cash Time (10/3), Smiley River (11/2), Brand New Cadillac (11/2), Port Key (13/2), Set The Standard (17/2), Gold Griffin (14/1), White Lightning (25/1)

CASH TIME looks to have narrowly the best credentials but it's an open race. Don't Look Back can also take a hand, while Smiley River also seems unlikely to be far away.
