Forecasts

Roland Garros (11/8), I'm A Fireball (2/1), Gotta Go Eddie (7/1), Kanaal Skater (15/2), Safe Travel (9/1), Cardinal Chief (11/1), Prince Of Troy (25/1)

I'M A FIREBALL formwise holds a healthy advantage and has an obvious chance. Gotta Go Eddie is another who could have a hand in the finish, while Safe Travel is prominent among those with minor place claims.
