Forecasts

Musical Score (11/8), Radicchio (4/1), Silent War (5/1), Thunee Playa (6/1), Royal Edition (8/1), Zuzan (11/1), Navajo Nation (14/1), Key Element (20/1)

Verdict

RADICCHIO isn't easy to oppose on the form he has shown and is well up to winning this. Silent War makes most appeal of the remainder, while Thunee Playa might be hard to keep out of the minor money.

  1. Radicchio4/1
  2. Silent War5/1
  3. Thunee Playa6/1
