Forecasts

Anfields Rocket (11/4), Mount Pilatus (4/1), Silent War (4/1), Troppo Veloce (11/2), Captain Hindsight (13/2), Rulership (7/1), Halberdier (16/1), Power Broker (16/1), Quantum Theory (20/1), Passage Of Power (25/1), Taikonaut (40/1)

CAPTAIN HINDSIGHT continues to run creditably and should make a bold show. Silent War seems the primary challenger, while Power Broker isn't entirely out of it either.
