Forecasts

Chocolate Soldier (13/8), Black Egret (11/4), Yamadori (15/2), B Fiftytwo (8/1), Kinshin Sha (10/1), Ride On (12/1), Quandary (16/1), Amber Rock (16/1), Esquevelle (20/1), Law Of Success (25/1), Warrior Of Royalty (25/1), Stormy Seas (33/1)

CHOCOLATE SOLDIER has very good claims and jumps off the page as the most likely winner. Amber Rock looks to have most to offer of the rest, while Kinshin Sha also seems unlikely to be far away.
