Forecasts

Exceed Expectation (11/8), Beechurst (5/2), Giambattista (4/1), Creator (6/1), Death Blow (14/1), Ladooshka (25/1), Trident King (28/1), Ixopo (28/1), Hallerbos (33/1), Bush Fire (40/1), Reef Bound (40/1), Master Chocolatier (50/1)

EXCEED EXPECTATION is just about up to taking this but hasn't much room for error. Giambattista is probably the main opposition, while Beechurst also merits respect.
