Forecasts

Cherry King (10/11), National Health (4/1), Northstead Gardens (5/1), Eccentric (15/2), Peter Piper (8/1), Bobby Dassler (9/1), Sir Laurence Graff (10/1), Danehill Star (14/1), Ciara Storm (33/1), Desiderata (66/1), Gypsy Nation (80/1)

NORTHSTEAD GARDENS is a pretty reliable sort and gets the tentative vote in a decidedly ordinary race. Cherry King and Sir Laurence Graff rate the principal threats.
