Forecasts

Drivelikeamaster (7/4), Satyagraha (9/2), Shivering Light (13/2), Buddy Boy (8/1), Wild As The Wind (9/1), Prince Of Kildare (10/1), Bristol Hercules (14/1), Elusive Red (16/1), Unsolved Riddle (16/1), Chieftain's Shield (18/1), Turbo Power (20/1), Gran Canaria (25/1), Longsword (28/1), Prized Platinum (33/1), Rock Of Bismantova (33/1), Peregrine Falcon (50/1), World Order (66/1), After Hours (66/1)

DRIVELIKEAMASTER is probably the one to beat. Shivering Light is a chief threat, while Wild As The Wind also requires scrutiny.
