Forecasts

Herodotus (15/8), Bartholdi (5/2), Willow Express (10/3), Bowie (7/2), Euro Cent (17/2), Ice Man Cometh (33/1), Corvette Captain (33/1), Aristachus (66/1), My Kingdom (100/1)

Verdict

HERODOTUS just about appeals most in a field of varying abilities. Willow Express can emerge best of the remainder, while Bowie looks best of the others.

  1. HERODOTUS (SAF)
  2. WILLOW EXPRESS (SAF)
  3. BOWIE (SAF)
