Forecasts

Kingdom Of Heaven (5/2), Nordic Chief (4/1), Tyrion Lannister (9/2), Numzaan (5/1), Diamond Rock (6/1), Oliver (7/1), Heart Stealer (7/1), Royal Swan Master (9/1), King's Ransom (11/1), Spring Palace (28/1), Holy Orders (40/1)

KINGDOM OF HEAVEN was the beaten market choice last time out, but still appeals as the most obvious option. Numzaan is probably the main opposition, while Nordic Chief enters calculations for third place.
