Forecasts

Mythical Dream (2/1), You Win Again (9/4), Symbol Of Love (13/2), Work Of Time (13/2), Summer Odyssey (15/2), Lily Of The Nile (8/1), Lady Majorca (8/1), Idita (28/1)

MYTHICAL DREAM looks marginally the best of these but it's competitive. Summer Odyssey seems the most likely to pounce if the selection fails to deliver, while You Win Again is another with place prospects too.
