Forecasts

Trafalgar Square (4/1), Axis Power (9/2), Purple Powahouse (5/1), Hamilton Hero (6/1), Grand Force (7/1), Time In Paris (10/1), Cappellino (12/1), Austrian Beauty (12/1), Bless Me Fred (14/1), Victor Rail (20/1), Little Cracker (20/1)

TIME IN PARIS should make a bold show. Grand Force seems best of the remnants, while Little Cracker shouldn't be far away either.
