Forecasts

Papa C (6/4), Secret Giver (11/4), High Moon (11/2), Admiral Birnham (7/1), Caesura (8/1), Space News (8/1), Teichman (17/2), Double Espresso (14/1), Tom Bombadil (33/1)

TEICHMAN is best of these on form and has obvious claims. Papa C looks sure to be involved as well, while Secret Giver could go well too.
