Forecasts

October Storm (6/5), Dame Of Trix (5/1), Magical Place (11/2), Easy Money (11/2), Fort Red (15/2), Cavalry Commander (14/1), Trippi's Silk (14/1), Heritage Ridge (22/1), Worldly (28/1), Shifting Path (28/1), Diablo (28/1), Bluff On Bluff (28/1)

EASY MONEY looks to have just about the best credentials but others can't be discounted in an open contest. Dame of Trix may be the best bet for second, while Bluff On Bluff also commands consideration.
