Forecasts

Master Josh (9/4), Mr Pigalle (10/3), Medal Of Freedom (11/2), New Mexico (17/2), Fine Admiral (11/1), Iron Will (11/1), Forest Jump (12/1), Action Stations (14/1), Political Party (14/1), Except Temptation (18/1), Paris Rain (18/1), Teichman (25/1), Captain Corrupt (28/1), Wave Warrior (28/1), Wylie Riley (33/1)

EXCEPT TEMPTATION looks marginally the pick of this bunch. Fine Admiral may be the best bet to follow the selection home, while Master Josh can't be ruled out of things either.
