Forecasts

Black Cheetah (5/2), Rafa's Boy (7/2), Mar Del Plata (4/1), Trippi T (6/1), Jet Legacy (15/2), Ibhele (11/1), Boom Shakalaka (11/1), Major Tommie (12/1), B Fiftytwo (14/1), Trafalgar Square (16/1), Warrior Of Royalty (22/1), Philispiel (25/1), Professor Lupin (33/1), Maneki Neko (40/1), The Mask (50/1), Grand Appeal (50/1)

BLACK CHEETAH looks to be the safest option but it's an open race. Major Tommie is fancied to beat the rest, while Warrior Of Royalty also demands consideration.
