Forecasts

Shinto Shrine (8/11), Grand Crescendo (5/4), Ilha Da Orange (3/1), Apache Son (5/1), Roll Of The Dice (20/1), Lightinthestorm (20/1), Captain Barbosa (22/1), Magical Stones (28/1), High Queue (33/1), Gold De Grace (40/1), Alakanani (40/1), Fly The Tune (50/1), Future Queen (50/1), Pacific (66/1)

SHINTO SHRINE is best of these by some way on form and shouldn't really be troubled. Grand Crescendo can fight it out for minor honours.
