Forecasts

Lady Loxton (5/2), Veronique (3/1), Royal Lytham (9/2), Shipindani (5/1), Grue Of Ice (8/1), Jet Green (9/1), December Dawn (14/1), Beneath The Moon (14/1), Lead To Glory (18/1), On Board (20/1), Blind Faith (50/1)

LADY LOXTON makes most appeal. Veronique seems best of the remainder, while Grue Of Ice edges it as the selection for third.
