Forecasts

Silvery Blue (9/4), Holly's View (9/2), Dream Scape (6/1), Opera Swing (13/2), Hilarity (15/2), Hey Siri (15/2), Saint Anastasia (8/1), Alaskan Fate (10/1), Definitely Maybe (12/1), Magna Mater (12/1), Maiden's Cove (14/1), Badrah (14/1), Kavian's Cara (14/1), Opulence (22/1), State Of Mind (33/1), Ray Flambe (33/1), Yaya Maria (50/1), Willow Lane (100/1)

SILVERY BLUE's overall form just gives her the edge but she has little room for error. Holly's View has the best credentials of the remainder, while Opera Swing also demands a second look.
