Forecasts

Celestial City (5/2), Lord Varys (10/3), Bob's Your Uncle (7/2), Vitellius (4/1), Jp Two Thousand (10/1), Southern Blaze (12/1), Dungeons (16/1), We've Got Tonight (16/1), Castle Corner (20/1)

Verdict

LORD VARYS is in a good run of form and sets the bar. Jp Two Thousand is most likely the chief opposition, while Vitellius is another to take into acount.
