Forecasts

Questioning (3/1), Sugar Mountain (4/1), Outlaw King (5/1), Absolutely Yes (11/2), Aristocratic (8/1), Cafe Culture (9/1), Let It Be Said (11/1), Underworld (12/1), Captain West (22/1), Ponte Pietra (66/1)

Verdict

SUGAR MOUNTAIN just about looks the one to be with but has little leeway if anything goes wrong. Outlaw King is the rational second option, while Captain West is another to consider.

  1. Sugar Mountain4/1
  2. Outlaw King5/1
  3. Captain West22/1
