Forecasts

Mount Tambora (1/3), Algernon (5/1), Ezaj (6/1), Dark Candy (12/1), H Borkan (25/1), Mulhim (33/1), Classic Medal (33/1), Mystery Moon (40/1), Game Master (66/1)

MOUNT TAMBORA formwise is well in front of these and is a straightforward pick. Algernon could have the most to offer of the remainder, while Ezaj is the tentative selection for third.
