Forecasts

Paton's Tears (5/4), United Council (7/2), Cape Lights (4/1), Sea Anemone (11/2), Strange Magic (7/1), Lady Regent (28/1)

Verdict

SEA ANEMONE looks marginally the pick of this bunch but has next to no margin for error. Paton's Tears is probably the chief opposition, while United Council is perhaps the most interesting of the others.

  1. Sea Anemone11/2
  2. Paton's Tears5/4
  3. United Council7/2
