Forecasts

Itsrainingwilliam (10/11), Seeking The One (4/1), Gallic Dream (4/1), Solomons Seal (13/2), Jerusalema Rain (13/2), Usa's Hope (12/1), Double Olympic (16/1), Ermelo (16/1), Monumental (18/1)

ITSRAININGWILLIAM holds a convincing advantage on form and is very much the one to beat. Seeking The One is put forward as the best option for the forecast , while Usa's Hope comes into calculations for minor honours.
