Forecasts

Purple Pitcher (3/1), Napoleon (3/1), Ryan's Dream (4/1), Bloomington (7/1), Rain Or Shine (15/2), Mo The Man (8/1), Nordic Rebel (11/1), Archimides (14/1), Greenlight Magic (14/1), Vesuvio (28/1)

Verdict

NORDIC REBEL is proving consistent and is just about the pick in this line up. Ryan's Dream could be the sternest opposition, while Mo The Man also has claims.
