Forecasts

Golden Rule (5/2), Dapper (11/4), Rugger Lover (13/2), Run Forest Run (7/1), Down By The River (7/1), French Trip (8/1), Emoyeni (11/1), Ibutho (12/1), Deandre's Dream (16/1), Lake Como (33/1), Viva Spirit (40/1), Knight Warrior (50/1), Thunderbird (100/1)

DAPPER is probably the one to beat. Run Forest Run is most likely the chief opposition, while Down By The River also requires a closer look.
