{clears throat} ....think I'll stick to my selections:D. Just messing with you, break a leg in the completion squire.

Double-Gullwing onto Rodeo Sioux!!!!

Interesting viewpoints - as per usual I'm going against the grain and for starters I am suggesting that while the first 2 favorites may well win, both imo much too short in the betting, especially Gullwing, who got beat by that superstar Da Moonsta <

I would not back him at 2/1 - but I have been wrong before (once or twice)

Villa Dellatigre 6/10 has to be based on lack of opposition rather than exposed form and is well worth taking on, 13/10 a place Royal Consort a far better option imo.

Couldn't agree more Titch, I've also taken some places on RC.
