Forecasts

Hawk Circle (5/6), Masterofallstorms (7/4), Bridgerton (3/1), Dumisani (9/1), Us Open (12/1), Excalibur (14/1), Hatfullofcherries (14/1), Regazzo Grande (20/1), War Sword (20/1), Miss Tucker (22/1), Set For Life (22/1), Landingonthemoon (50/1)

HAWK CIRCLE is just about best of these all things considered but hasn't much room for error. Bridgerton seems the most likely to pounce if the selection fails to deliver, while Miss Tucker also commands a second look.
