Forecasts

Ignitethelight (13/8), Sun Spectacular (5/2), Arabian Red (8/1), Strange Magic (11/1), Courageous (12/1), Volare E Mambo (14/1), Chere For Me (14/1), Greenlight Dancer (14/1), Treasure Hunt (14/1), Call To Glory (28/1), Valerias Dream (33/1), United Express (33/1), Rainbow River (33/1)

IGNITETHELIGHT is just about the best hope here taking everything into account but others can't be discounted in an open contest. Volare E Mambo will seemingly provide most resistance, while Sun Spectacular looks best of the others.
