Forecasts

Bella Swan (5/2), Emerald Princess (5/2), Damova (5/1), Escape Artist (11/2), Just Fabulous (7/1), Tinder Dry (8/1), Maboneng (8/1), Linganomore (10/1), Saffron Rain (50/1)

ESCAPE ARTIST looks to have narrowly the best credentials but will need to be firing on all cylinders. Bella Swan has the strongest claims of the others, while Tinder Dry could also get a look-in.
