Forecasts

Silver Host (3/1), Thefutureisbright (5/1), Master Redoute (6/1), Arctic Drift (15/2), Han Solo (9/1), Senso Unico (9/1), Flower Of Saigon (10/1), Rex Union (10/1), Chewbaca (10/1), Super Silvano (16/1)

FLOWER OF SAIGON makes most appeal. Chewbaca is difficult to ignore, while Thefutureisbright is the third candidate.
