Forecasts

Parisian Walkway (5/4), Spirit Of Levana (5/2), French Flame (7/2), Commanding (17/2), Famous Warrior (9/1), Notable (16/1), Royal Alliance (33/1), New Frontier (33/1), Lucky Spirit (40/1)

SPIRIT OF LEVANA is just about the safest pick but others can't be discounted in an open contest. Parisian Walkway is the most prudent second choice, while French Flame might well have a say as well.
