Forecasts

Florida Keys (1/1), Louvain (7/2), Soul Of Wit (4/1), Dancing Arabian (15/2), Silvery Blue (10/1), Encore (12/1), Savage Love (20/1), Simply Complicated (20/1), Zulu War Cry (33/1), Snow Path (66/1)

FLORIDA KEYS just about appeals most in an open-looking handicap. Savage Love rates the main danger, while Encore looks best of the remainder.
