Forecasts

Gallic Tribe (9/2), Royal Watch (9/2), All About Al (11/2), T'challa (11/2), Look For Hounds (7/1), Somerset Maugham (15/2), Herodotus (11/1), Kaptein (12/1), His Choice (12/1), Bush Tracker (14/1), Knights Templar (16/1), Lion's Head (22/1)

KAPTEIN is just about the best hope here taking everything into account but this is an open race. Gallic Tribe is the most realistic next preference, while All About Al also has claims.
