Forecasts

Halberdier (9/4), Twice As Wild (10/3), Princess Lola (9/2), Longsword (5/1), Circus Lights (6/1), Smelting (10/1), Samthewiseman (12/1), Wings Of Nike (25/1), Dakota Cat (28/1)

Verdict

SMELTING has put together a solid series of efforts lately and should give backers a decent run for their money. Twice As Wild is probably the main opposition, while Halberdier is the tentative selection for third.
