Forecasts

Metallic Gold (9/4), Purple Operator (7/2), Justaguything (5/1), Gentleman's Way (6/1), Beechamwood Boy (7/1), Son Of Zeus (7/1), Stanley Park (9/1), Flying Peter (18/1)

JUSTAGUYTHING is just about the safest pick but this is an open race. Purple Operator might be the answer to second place, while Metallic Gold shouldn't be ruled out.
