Forecasts

Pontiac (1/1), Captain Hindsight (11/4), Twice The Storm (8/1), Stormy Seas (8/1), Kalahari Blue (10/1), Power Broker (14/1), Tayooba (16/1), Strike A Match (16/1), Pinch Hit (18/1), San Marzano (33/1), Princess Nicole (80/1)

PINCH HIT should make a bold show. Tayooba can be thereabouts, while San Marzano might be worth siding with for third.
