Forecasts

Mississippi River (5/6), Tribal Nation (6/4), Local Lad (2/1), Omni Man (7/1), Ze Do Asfalto (10/1), Birdie Time (28/1), Dancing Bay (80/1), Elvetham (100/1), Bel Espoir (200/1)

LOCAL LAD has achieved enough to think he can win a race like this and is narrowly preferred to Tribal Nation and Mississippi River, who have the potential for better again on the back of runner-up efforts.
