Forecasts

Ad Altisima (3/1), Ultra Magnus (3/1), Pray For Rain (4/1), Love Bomb (5/1), Kings Road (5/1), Princekresh (8/1), Filippo (14/1), Ishnana (33/1)

FILIPPO has a decent record here and is weighted to go well. Ad Altisima could provide the biggest competition, while Princekresh edges it so far as third place is concerned.
