Forecasts

Great Affair (4/1), Dream Destiny (4/1), In Auro (11/2), Spring Fling (7/1), Prospero (15/2), Saint Philip (8/1), Run To Denmark (8/1), Bhakka (16/1), Banzai Pipeline (18/1), Monarchy (20/1), Mrs Hotline (22/1), Assured (22/1), Major Return (28/1), Clouds Of Witness (28/1), Wildlife Safari (66/1), Power To Command (80/1)

Verdict

PROSPERO looks to have marginally the best chance but needs to bounce back from a lesser effort. Dream Destiny could emerge as the main danger, while Power To Command merits respect also.

  1. PROSPERO (SAF)
  2. DREAM DESTINY (SAF)
  3. POWER TO COMMAND (SAF)
