Forecasts

Battleground (4/7), Top Sail (7/2), Skyjet (9/2), African Torrent (5/1), King Of Rome (17/2), Otto Luyken (16/1), Commanding Power (20/1), Hephaestus (50/1)

BATTLEGROUND looks marginally the best in this field but it's an open race. King Of Rome looks the likeliest to chase the selection home, while African Torrent is one to bear in mind too.
