Forecasts

Herodotus (7/2), Zig Zag (9/2), Phil's Power (9/2), El Romiachi (5/1), Var's Boy (6/1), Alado's Pride (15/2), Euphoric (14/1), American Landing (16/1), Wind Sock (16/1), Psycho King (20/1), Falling For You (22/1), Pacific Duke (28/1)

AMERICAN LANDING is just about up to taking this but it's competitive. Euphoric is the most likely danger, while Alado's Pride commands a second look as well.
