Forecasts

Port Louis (11/4), Prince Of Fire (11/4), Gallic Tribe (4/1), Perfection (5/1), And We Danced (11/2), Silver Tycoon (16/1), Narcos (18/1), Cat Daddy (20/1), Naval Secret (20/1), Matsuyamo (33/1), Safari Blue (50/1)

Verdict

AND WE DANCED is just about the best hope here taking everything into account but it's pretty competitive. Prince Of Fire could give the selection most to think about, while Gallic Tribe can fight it out for minor honours.
