Forecasts

Spelling Bee (6/5), Forgiveness (11/4), Noble City (9/2), French Flame (7/1), Plaza Accord (7/1), Johnny The Thief (10/1), Beach Palace (20/1), Broadway Girl (20/1), Wave Warrior (20/1)

FORGIVENESS looks marginally the pick in this field but it promises to be touch and go. Spelling Bee can emerge best of the rest, while Noble City commands a second look as well.
