Forecasts

Union Rose (11/8), Arabian Red (4/1), Nothingelsematters (9/2), Gold Gunner (6/1), Sand Bank (10/1), Hawk Circle (10/1), Godfather (18/1), Kileigh's Fate (20/1), Belle's First Wave (25/1), Military Man (28/1)

UNION ROSE is just about the safest pick but has little leeway if anything goes wrong. Arabian Red is a sound alternative, while Nothingelsematters is one to bear in mind too.
