Forecasts

Thunderstruck (13/8), Golden Sickle (11/4), Dyce (13/2), William Robertson (7/1), Rulership (8/1), Ziyasha (12/1), Iphiko (14/1), Sheldon (16/1), Mover And Shaker (18/1), Pray For Rain (25/1), Ready To Charge (25/1), Kiss Me Captain (66/1)

GOLDEN SICKLE is easily the best in this line up on known form and has outstanding claims. Ziyasha may be the best bet for second, while Thunderstruck is one to bear in mind too.
