Forecasts

Passchendaele (15/8), Back For More (15/8), Easy Living (15/2), Mary Lamb (15/2), Oriental Bouquet (11/1), Kabon Kapi (11/1), Chere For Me (12/1), Twice To Heaven (16/1), Chroniclesofnania (16/1), Sun Spectacular (16/1), Idita (40/1)

SUN SPECTACULAR has been hard to fault in recent races and is up to winning this. Passchendaele seems sure to be snapping at the selection's heels, while Kabon Kapi merits respect also.
