Forecasts

Blue Planet (10/11), Papa C (9/4), Command Control (13/2), Run To Denmark (10/1), Teichman (12/1), Twice Golden (22/1), Straight Up (25/1), Querari's Cowboy (28/1), Arrow's Mark (33/1), Decorated (40/1)

BLUE PLANET was a shade disappointing when favourite last time out, but is worth another chance. Teichman has the strongest claims of the others, while Papa C looks third best.
