Forecasts

Banff (11/10), Potberrie (11/4), Royal Force (3/1), Miss Lia (7/2), Tintamarre (17/2), Peace Treaty (9/1), Skittles Skies (14/1), Lava Fire (14/1), Kamensky (16/1)

BANFF makes most appeal. Potberrie likely poses the biggest threat, while Skittles Skies might be hard to keep out of the minor money.
