Forecasts

Crank It Up (11/4), Prince Evlanoff (11/4), Oscar Wilde (4/1), Greek Fire (5/1), Category Four (9/1), Bien Venue (11/1), Rooi Tom (12/1), Lone Survivor (14/1), Senor Lizard (22/1), Kings Archer (28/1)

GREEK FIRE could be all guns blazing and gets the vote to resume winning ways. Bien Venue is most likely the toughest opposition, while Category Four also seems unlikely to be far away.
