Forecasts

Foudre (6/5), Prince Of Tibet (5/1), Connery (6/1), Givethatmanabells (7/1), Blue Bay (8/1), The Night Ferry (9/1), Run For Me (20/1), Solomons Seal (25/1), King Viserys (28/1), Mela Strength (40/1), Three Anchor Bay (40/1), Spencer (50/1), King Of Numbers (50/1), House Of Sussex (66/1)

THE NIGHT FERRY is just about the pick in this company and seems likely to take the beating. Prince Of Tibet is the danger, while Foudre is the other candidate for the three.
