Forecasts

On The Road Again (9/4), Fiery Duke (7/2), El Romiachi (7/1), Pedro (7/1), Duke Of Orange (9/1), Indy View (14/1), Uncle George (14/1), Daleel (16/1), Razor Red (16/1), Giocatore (16/1), Settle The Dust (18/1), Motor City Hitman (22/1), Soweto Rose (28/1), Absolu Noir (50/1)

DUKE OF ORANGE is just about up to taking this but it's competitive. Indy View ought to be involved as well, while El Romiachi can't be ruled out.
