Forecasts

Just Var (10/11), Kambulu (5/2), Three Bells (5/1), Us Open (7/1), Uncle Lucky (9/1), Justcruisinalong (14/1), Atchison Topeka (14/1), All Black Captain (25/1), Le Fort Bion (25/1), Blyde River (28/1), Leao Alado (40/1), Going Global (40/1)

JUST VAR is well up to winning this readily. Kambulu might be the answer to second place, while Us Open has a good shout of a share of the minor money.
