Forecasts

Position Of Power (11/8), Soho Star (9/2), Icy Blast (9/2), Super Fast (15/2), African Skyline (8/1), Good Traveller (16/1), Narina Trogon (16/1), Magic Surprise (18/1), Tara Star (20/1), Hithemhardsunshine (20/1), Diani (28/1)

POSITION OF POWER looks the one to be with, albeit narrowly but will need to be firing on all cylinders. Soho Star is likely to pounce if the selection fails to deliver, while Icy Blast looks third best.
