Forecasts

Haarlem (7/4), Red William (4/1), Nothingelsematters (9/2), Mr Belvedere (17/2), Slainte Mhath (9/1), Oranjemund (10/1), Mothership (10/1), Gardener's Pride (14/1), Kanimambo (14/1), Magnum Fire (22/1), Dumisani (25/1), Great Affair (28/1), Millennium Dancer (40/1)

DUMISANI should be bang there but it is open. Millennium Dancer could be the one to take advantage if the selection underperforms, while Oranjemund has a place chance as well.
