Forecasts

King Arthur (9/4), Master Of Coin (10/3), Maiden's Cove (4/1), Mcebisi (15/2), Player (11/1), Twice A Miracle (12/1), Toffas (12/1), Bye Bye Birdie (14/1), Coming In Hot (18/1), Bally Magic (18/1), Great Melody (22/1), Cross Examiner (25/1), Big Five (40/1), Jivko Draganov (50/1), Spiderhead (66/1)

MASTER OF COIN is highest rated of these on the form book and jumps off the page as the most likely winner. King Arthur is the most prudent second choice, while Twice A Miracle can win the battle for minor honours.
