Forecasts

Aint No Doubt (13/8), Cover Charge (5/2), Beach Walker (7/2), Vixeninthevineyard (4/1), Silent Future (7/1), Cuzzie (11/1), Eratosthenes (25/1), Jabberwocky (66/1), Cranberry Point (80/1)

VIXENINTHEVINEYARD couldn't satisfy backers last time, but looks worth another chance. Silent Future seems the most likely to capitalise if the selection fails to deliver, while Cover Charge is the other candidate for the three.
