Forecasts

Street Outlaw (2/1), Chapbook (5/1), Gallic Forge (5/1), Commanding (6/1), Paratrooper (8/1), Mariachi Madness (10/1), Ischyro (12/1), Shifting Path (12/1), Sun Dazed (16/1), Givethatmanabells (20/1), Good To Great (20/1), Bonne Bouche (28/1), Palace Gift (33/1), Typically French (40/1), Why Not Jackie (66/1)

CHAPBOOK has very good form claims on these terms so looks the way to go. Sun Dazed can also play a significant part, while Bonne Bouche edges it so far as third place is concerned.
