Forecasts

Command Pilot (10/3), Royal Guide (7/2), Tamarisk Tree (6/1), La Moohal (7/1), Scallywag (7/1), Trident King (8/1), Paisley Park (11/1), Emporium (14/1), Indlamu (18/1), We Are The Logans (20/1), Whispers Of War (25/1), Professor Snape (28/1), Kyomai (28/1), River Romeo (40/1)

EMPORIUM has marginally the best all-round profile but it's an open race. Tamarisk Tree makes most appeal among the remainder, while Command Pilot also commands a second look.
