Forecasts

Bellevarde (5/2), Terra Time (5/2), Flying First Class (7/2), Admire Me (11/2), Opera Glass (13/2), Kind Judy (17/2), Liverpool Legend (16/1)

TERRA TIME looks to have marginally the best credentials but others can't be discounted in an open contest. Flying First Class looks sure to be involved as well, while Admire Me comes into calculations for third place.
