Forecasts

Viva De Janeiro (15/8), Golden Pavilion (5/2), Archimides (4/1), Gimme A Diamond (13/2), Command Pilot (12/1), Van Meijel (14/1), Dream State (22/1), Pearl Harbor (22/1), Major Player (22/1), Circus Lights (25/1), Vino Dolce (33/1), Sugar Blast (33/1), Tenstar (80/1)

GOLDEN PAVILION looks marginally the pick in this field. Viva De Janeiro comes into the equation, while Archimides is another with the potential to be on the premises.
