Forecasts

Ischyro (2/1), Try Me (4/1), Champagne Mac (9/2), Tambourine Man (6/1), Lady Loxton (13/2), Beneath The Moon (7/1), Prince Of Tibet (15/2), Captain's Destiny (12/1), Grue Of Ice (16/1), Solartrip (22/1), Undercover Lover (66/1)

TRY ME is just about the best hope here taking everything into account. Grue Of Ice appeals most of the remainder, while Lady Loxton is another with place prospects too.
