Forecasts

Son Of Silk (10/3), Don't Touch Me (4/1), Royal Monarch (4/1), Calgary (5/1), The Appeal (5/1), What A Blast (6/1), Brandenburg (9/1), Straight Up (16/1), The Bayou (16/1), Star Crusade (20/1), Lady Of Lutetia (22/1), Deorsa (25/1), Deep Global (25/1)

STAR CRUSADE is just about the safest pick but has little margin for error. What A Blast seems the primary danger, while The Bayou deserves some consideration too.
