Forecasts

Jenni (7/4), Porta Fortuna (9/2), Ellie Moore (5/1), Blame Thechampagne (6/1), Mary Shoelaces (9/1), Neo Smart (10/1), Mary The Priest (14/1), Cornahilt Soldier (18/1)

JENNI's dam was a sharp 2-y-o and she represents a yard firmly among the winners so she's the way to go before market clues. Porta Fortuna and Neo Smart are also likely types on paper.
