Forecasts

Ozark (15/8), Unsolved Riddle (11/4), Naushon (4/1), Golden Grey (11/2), Gold Index (6/1), Beer With The Boys (14/1), Blame It On Me (18/1), Tothemoonandback (22/1), Flight Display (25/1), Mothership (33/1), Simply Beautiful (40/1)

OZARK is probably the safest recommendation but it promises to be touch and go. Naushon could emerge as the main challenger, while Unsolved Riddle is one to bear in mind too.
