Forecasts

Luhamba Phambili (2/1), Lion Rampart (3/1), Donquerari (5/1), Un Bel Di (7/1), Cymric (7/1), Bourbon Warrior (15/2), King Regent (12/1), Hithemhardsunshine (20/1), The Abdicator (20/1), Slim Jannie (25/1), I Am Giant (28/1), Shipholia (50/1)

DONQUERARI is probably the safest recommendation but will need to be firing on all cylinders. Cymric is given the vote for second, while Luhamba Phambili is another to take into acount.
