Forecasts

Wildest Dreams (5/2), Crafty Heart (7/2), Cana (5/1), Space Oddity (15/2), Do Si Do (8/1), Get It Done (8/1), Arion Of Adrast (11/1), With Our Blessing (12/1), Izhiestia (16/1), Ubiquitas (18/1), Colorama (25/1), Kavian's Cara (25/1), Pinch Me (28/1), Sarajevo (33/1), Tartan Dancer (40/1)

ARION OF ADRAST has marginally the best all-round profile but has little leeway if anything goes wrong. Do Si Do is foremost among the dangers, while Cana also commands a second look.
