Forecasts

One Irish Rover (7/2), Now I Got You (4/1), Whereverilaymyhat (5/1), El Draque (11/2), Trade War (8/1), Teerex (10/1), Cotton Ron (14/1), Anotherdayinafrica (14/1), King Rahul (16/1), Navajo Dancer (20/1), Silver Savage (25/1)

NOW I GOT YOU's recent starts have had a lot to like about them and he is up to winning this. Teerex seems the leading challenger, while One Irish Rover is not out of it where the places are concerned.
