Forecasts

Open Highway (5/2), Masterofthedesert (7/2), Isikwishikwishi (4/1), Deception Pass (5/1), African Prince (10/1), Dylan's Champ (10/1), Rollo The Viking (14/1), Dapper (16/1), Lady Sabrina (25/1), Notable (25/1), Chocolate Bomb (33/1), Down By The River (40/1), Chelsea Flower (40/1)

DECEPTION PASS has fair claims. African Prince is a player, while Open Highway also demands a closer look.
