Forecasts

Royal Victory (3/1), Captain Fontane (7/2), Forever Mine (9/2), Silvano's Dasher (6/1), Russian Rock (15/2), African Skyline (17/2), Vanderbilt (10/1), Airways Law (16/1), Look For Hounds (20/1), Bowie (25/1), Battle Force (28/1), Cartel Captain (33/1)

Verdict

AFRICAN SKYLINE is selected tentatively but it's an open race. Captain Fontane is also fancied to take a hand, while Russian Rock is also an interesting runner.
