Forecasts

Juan Carlos (15/8), Nothingelsematters (9/2), Harold The Duke (11/2), Slainte Mhath (11/2), Exhale (13/2), Alado's Pride (7/1), Ellis Island (14/1), Light Without (14/1), Downing Seven (14/1), Mo Flow (20/1), Magnum Fire (28/1)

SLAINTE MHATH is manifestly in front of these formwise and is difficult to oppose. Ellis Island can also play a role, while Alado's Pride might be worth siding with for third.
