Forecasts

Wind Water (2/1), National Star (3/1), Fish Eagle (10/3), Iron Sky (9/2), Air Fusion (17/2), Dungeons (12/1), Back In Business (12/1), Northern Tune (16/1), Munich (20/1), Stalker (33/1), Fully Loaded (40/1), Chasin (50/1), Tony Soprano (50/1)

NATIONAL STAR is well clear on form and tops the shortlist by some way. Dungeons may be the one for second, while Wind Water also seems unlikely to be far away.
