Forecasts

Viva's Liberte (9/4), La Pulga (7/2), Tenpenny (7/2), Future Free (9/2), Landoftherisingsun (9/1), Magic Verse (12/1), Otto Luyken (25/1), Sheriff John Stone (66/1)

Verdict

FUTURE FREE is in a good vein of form and will probably take the beating. Viva's Liberte is a marginal preference for second, while Magic Verse has place prospects as well.
