Forecasts

Yantarni (2/1), Swashbuckler (4/1), Ingra Tor (11/2), Soulcombe (11/2), Audience (15/2), Devoted Poet (12/1), Silks Pass (14/1), Indian Territories (20/1), Farhh Point (25/1), Mount Kosciuszko (33/1), Pub Crawl (50/1), Richard P Smith (100/1), Commander Hector (125/1)

This is likely to go to a newcomer given the quality of pedigrees on show. YANTARNI, Audience and Soulcombe all make stacks of appeal representing powerful yards and are preferred in that order without the benefit of market clues.
