Forecasts

Iron Will (9/4), Sea Master (9/2), Juan Carlos (9/2), Boundless Bash (5/1), Ideal Act (11/2), Artic Tune (6/1), News Stream (13/2), Caesura (10/1), Oh So Squishy (20/1)

CAESURA is in decent form right now and should make a bold show. Boundless Bash ought to go well too, while Artic Tune demands respect as well.
