Forecasts

Billy Bowlegs (11/4), None Other (3/1), Bonete (3/1), Pragmatist (11/2), Otto Luyken (10/1), African Torrent (16/1), Ryan's Dream (20/1), King Of Rome (25/1), Libeccio (40/1), American Star (50/1)

NONE OTHER formwise is some way in advance of these and will take plenty of beating. Billy Bowlegs is another who should take a hand, while Bonete heads up those chasing third place.
