Forecasts

Kasimir (5/2), Rio Querari (4/1), Russet Air (4/1), Bold Respect (13/2), Pacific Trader (13/2), Rivarine (8/1), Elusive Trader (17/2), Freedom Seeker (22/1), Hildegarde (22/1), Al Bragga (25/1)

RIVARINE looks marginally the best bet in this field. Rio Querari and Elusive Trader are feared.
