Forecasts

Stage Dance (11/4), Kiss Of Life (3/1), Encryption (4/1), Luna Wish (15/2), Brandina (8/1), Forest Field (10/1), Intrepid Traveller (10/1), Scarborough Fair (11/1), Travel In Style (22/1), Captain Anne Bonny (40/1), Pretty Ballerina (50/1), Virtuosa (50/1), Shezaglo (80/1)

FOREST FIELD has marginally the best all-round profile but others can't be discounted in an open contest. Scarborough Fair is most likely the toughest opposition, while Kiss Of Life is another that merits respect.
