Forecasts

Skating On Ice (9/4), Such Luck (9/4), Iqembulabesifazane (3/1), Queen Louise (9/2), Crafty Heart (10/1), Countess Cartier (10/1), Fort Snow (22/1), Eshraaq (33/1), Star Search (33/1), Clo Clo (40/1), Fame And Claim (40/1), Crystal Sky (50/1)

SKATING ON ICE looks to have marginally the best chance but others can't be discounted in an open contest. Iqembulabesifazane looks the best bet for the runner-up spot, while Fort Snow looks best of the others.
