Forecasts

Teatro (11/8), Transact (3/1), Slim Jannie (11/2), Victory Of Dubai (7/1), Captain Casanova (10/1), Life On Mars (10/1), Light That Loose (12/1), Notorix (14/1), Gallic Tribe (25/1), Vista Nova (33/1), European Summer (40/1)

NOTORIX has chief claims. Transact could provide the hardest opposition, while Victory Of Dubai is another who could figure.
