Forecasts

Shoemaker (3/1), Litigation (9/2), Street Art (9/2), Zeus (11/2), Whafeef (6/1), Meridius (8/1), Twin Turbo (10/1), Aragosta (14/1), Nebraas (22/1), River Romeo (25/1), Gilded Butterfly (33/1), Ipso Facto (33/1)

WHAFEEF looks marginally the best of these but will need to be on song. Shoemaker is preferred for the forecast, while Twin Turbo is another with place prospects too.
