Booming! That's who I couldn't remember!

Some good ones here. I'd love Sir Slick to do it (he won this race in 2007, beating Xcellent), but I just don't see it happening. Veyron, Lady Kipling and Shez Sinsational for me.
That field is like a Chrisrmas present.

Good luck to Sir Slick of course who I don't see winning either but I worry either way... if he's entered or if I stop seeing his name for a while.

God retire him already!

If it can't be him I'm hoping Vosne Romanee or Vonusti wins but I think you're right about Lady Kipling and if I were playing that's who I'd use on top.
