Forecasts

Al's My Daddy (4/1), Mr Gonzales (4/1), Time Taker (13/2), Bayview Express (8/1), Tromso (9/1), Count Marsh (9/1), Parktown (9/1), Master Tobe (11/1), Congo Compaq (12/1), Blue Planet (14/1), King's Crusade (14/1), Hey Bill (22/1), Italian Dynasty (22/1), Second Request (80/1)

BAYVIEW EXPRESS is probably the safest recommendation. Tromso could be the big challenger, while Al's My Daddy is perhaps the most interesting other runner.
