Forecasts

In A Blue Moon (7/4), Callaburn (15/8), Al Akhtaar (7/2), Master Tik Tok (7/1), Agamemnon (15/2), Pomo Clapper (9/1), Russian Lotus (20/1), Kanimambo (28/1), Japanese Maple (33/1), Touched By Stars (33/1), Silver Seven (33/1)

IN A BLUE MOON should be bang there. Callaburn could be the answer to second place, while Master Tik Tok edges things for third.
