Forecasts

Noble City (11/8), Runaway Song (9/2), Ensuing (5/1), Shampompo Shampizi (13/2), Iron Will (13/2), Go Man Go (13/2), Dandolo (10/1), Oh So Squishy (28/1)

NOBLE CITY looks to have just about the best credentials but will need to be on song. Iron Will should be thereabouts as well, while Runaway Song also demands scrutiny.
