Forecasts

Fully Loaded (15/8), Chocolate Bomb (9/4), Runway Bomb (3/1), Moving In (9/2), Cornwall (15/2), Nice Move (11/1), Samthewiseman (18/1), Anytime Champ (18/1), Gimme Royalty (33/1)

RUNWAY BOMB took her form up another grade last time and sets the standard. Fully Loaded has the strongest claims of the rest, while Chocolate Bomb also requires respect.
