Forecasts

Riverstown (13/8), Approach Control (4/1), Vistula (4/1), Mount Laurel (5/1), Soldier On (7/1), Full Mast (12/1), Clever Guy (14/1), Zouaves (14/1), Lake Kinneret (14/1), Winter Storm (16/1), Captain Aldo (20/1), Angel's Power (40/1)

LAKE KINNERET's recent runs have had a lot to like about them and he just about gets the nod in this company. Clever Guy seems best of the remainder, while Approach Control is another to consider.
