Forecasts

King's Express (7/4), Soldier's Eye (3/1), Fire 'n Flames (10/3), Hotarubi (7/2), Silent War (9/2), Diwali Rocket (10/1), Infinite Wonder (12/1), Arumugam (66/1)

SOLDIER'S EYE looks marginally the best of this bunch but has little room for error. King's Express makes most appeal of the remainder, while Fire 'N Flames is the tentative selection for third. .
