Forecasts

Oranjemund (5/2), Anchor Man (11/4), Global Reef (7/2), Beer With The Boys (9/2), Gardener's Pride (15/2), Take A Mulligan (10/1), Kamaria (14/1), Lord Capulet (33/1), Stormstride (100/1)

GARDENER'S PRIDE looks to have marginally the best credentials but this is an open race. Anchor Man is another who could have a hand in the finish, while Oranjemund is the tentative selection for third. .
