Forecasts

On The Horizon (11/10), Sea Anemone (10/3), Queen Of Camelot (4/1), Strange Magic (7/1), Simple Simple (12/1), Que Ceu Azul (12/1), Just Be Nice (14/1), Memorial Day (40/1)

QUEEN OF CAMELOT appears to have just enough in hand to take this but others can't be discounted in an open contest. On The Horizon heads the dangers, while Que Ceu Azul is the other candidate for the three.
