Forecasts

Golden Angel (7/4), Amafort (7/2), Copacabana (9/2), Nile The Boss (13/2), Moving In (15/2), Blind Speed (8/1), Oh My Gucci Girl (12/1), K M V Retrofit (20/1), Roy Taking Off (33/1), Fate Decreed (40/1), The Queen Bee (66/1), Futano (80/1)

OH MY GUCCI GIRL has been hard to fault in recent races and has a fair chance. Amafort is most likely the main opposition, while Copacabana deserves consideration too.
