Forecasts

Future Saint (11/4), Pongola (9/2), Run To Rio (5/1), Elusive Belle (11/2), Shiny Bob (15/2), Animal Impact (8/1), Gorgeous Dude (9/1), Basie Raakvat (14/1), Bally Magic (14/1), Forest Jump (18/1), Sacred Lily (40/1), Rastignac (80/1)

Verdict

ELUSIVE BELLE looks to have narrowly the best claims but has little room for error. Sacred Lily could be the sternest opposition, while Animal Impact is another that merits respect.
