Forecasts

Mayor Of Merrivale (11/4), Dynalley (3/1), Venerable (7/2), King's Island (4/1), Power Star (8/1), Give Us A Smile (10/1), Reach Forthe Stars (14/1), Ubisika (28/1), Arsene Lupin (33/1), Few Dollars More (66/1)

VENERABLE has leading claims. Power Star has the best credentials of the rest, while Mayor Of Merrivale is another worth looking at.
