Forecasts

Jaspero (9/4), Ushuaia (3/1), Almighwaar (4/1), Young Nelson (7/1), Alado's Pride (15/2), Royal Shindig (15/2), Cane Lime 'n Soda (8/1), Homer Fidget (11/1), Ideal Time (18/1)

ALMIGHWAAR could be the way to go. Ushuaia looks to have most to offer of the rest, while Jaspero is another with the potential to be on the premises.
