Forecasts

The Africa House (5/4), Richard The First (2/1), Wyzeact (7/2), Kyomai (9/1), Biofarmer (12/1), Mizzen Sail (18/1), Copper Mist (28/1), Royal Edition (33/1), Vitellius (40/1)

KYOMAI quickly put a below-par run aside last time and will take all the beating. Biofarmer is probably the sternest threat, while The Africa House is perhaps the most interesting other runner in the line up.
