Forecasts

Juan Carlos (7/4), No Place Like Home (3/1), Mo Flow (7/2), El Rey Viene (9/2), Alado's Pride (9/1), Downing Seven (12/1), Legal Chitchat (33/1), King Of Seville (50/1)

JUAN CARLOS looks to have narrowly the best credentials but it's open. Mo Flow seems the leading danger, while Alado's Pride also commands a closer look.
