Forecasts

Ubisika (7/4), Gunsmoke (2/1), Travel Master (6/1), Climate Control (15/2), Adios Amigos (11/1), Makhachev (12/1), San Quintin (12/1), Cruzador (14/1), Pedro (16/1), Irontail (18/1), Alado's Pride (25/1), Pisces (25/1), Meetatthewindsor (50/1)

Verdict

UBISIKA has run several good races recently and could be difficult to catch. Gunsmoke seems best of the rest, while Travel Master deserves some consideration too.
