Forecasts

Elzaamsan (16/5), Pro Bono (10/3), Celtic Revival (4/1), Showman (13/2), Arch Enemy (8/1), Picpoul (10/1), Lex Maxima (14/1), Sea Oscar (16/1), Complete Fantasy (18/1), Benz (20/1), Munfallet (25/1), Clueless Hill (33/1), Santorini Sun (50/1), Canning (66/1)

PRO BONO pulled clear of the rest when a close second under this rider here 4 weeks ago so tops the shortlist off a similar mark. Celtic Revival and Arch Enemy head the dangers.
