Forecasts

Popping Crease (6/4), Lord Nelson (4/1), Joe Harman (9/2), Space Explorer (15/2), Belle's First Wave (17/2), Opening Ceremony (12/1), Twice A Saint (14/1), Natasha Rostov (16/1), More For Me (25/1), Ballycotton (28/1), Piper's Creek (40/1), Antonia Augusta (66/1)

BELLE'S FIRST WAVE is probably the best recommendation but can't afford to put a foot wrong. Natasha Rostov is given the vote for second, while Joe Harman commands a closer look as well.
