Forecasts

The Ultimate King (5/4), Luce Verde (3/1), Enflame (3/1), Palace Dancer (5/1), Hawkbill (8/1), Royal Edition (12/1), Vesuvio (20/1), Breeze Over (25/1), We Are The Logans (25/1), Arumugam (50/1)

ENFLAME is improving well and can win again. The Ultimate King is a big danger, as is old rival Luce Verde.
