Forecasts

Ibhele (4/1), Ndaka (9/2), Professor Lupin (9/2), Boom Shakalaka (9/2), Andy Coogle (11/2), Northern Warrior (8/1), B Fiftytwo (17/2), Apex Predator (16/1), Trafalgar Square (20/1), Chara Sands (25/1), Bless Me Fred (33/1), Lightning Jimmy (33/1)

Verdict

PROFESSOR LUPIN is just about the best hope here taking everything into account but has little room for error. Andy Coogle seemingly poses the biggest danger, while Ndaka also commands respect.
