Forecasts

Michelin Star (4/7), Stolen Thunder (9/2), Poldark (5/1), Ships At Sea (15/2), The First Viceroy (20/1), Rishaan's Boy (25/1), Choice Assorted (33/1), Royal Tiger (33/1), Forttuva (40/1)

MICHELIN STAR is quite clearly in front of these formwise and is going to be hard to beat. Stolen Thunder is hard to ignore if looking elsewhere, while Ships At Sea looks best of the others.
