Forecasts

Arbitration (5/4), Apache Chief (9/4), Cliff Swallow (9/4), Approach Shot (7/1), Joueur De Flute (7/1), Express Yourself (7/1), Mr Belvedere (10/1), Givethatmanabells (14/1), Fly In Style (16/1), Twentytwentyvision (22/1), Mela Strength (33/1)

Verdict

ARBITRATION is selected rather gingerly but it promises to be touch and go. Joueur De Flute arguably sets the standard among the rest, while Cliff Swallow is another with place prospects too.
