Forecasts

Gimmelightning (7/4), Winter Cloud (11/2), Rascova (7/1), Distant Winter (8/1), Teflon Man (8/1), The Abdicator (9/1), Golden Tatjana (10/1), Icy Blast (11/1), Noon Day Gun (16/1), Evies Horizon (25/1), Bohemian Grove (33/1), Fibonacci (66/1)

WINTER CLOUD is going to be hard to beat. Rascova should be thereabouts, while Gimmelightning looks the one for the minor money.
