Forecasts

Taxhaven (11/10), Dark Silver (3/1), Karoo Gold (3/1), Dhoni (17/2), Douglas Dragon (14/1), Callaburn (14/1), Mishrah (16/1), Russian Lotus (33/1), Teo Torriatte (50/1), Touched By Stars (125/1)

KAROO GOLD just about looks the one to be with. Teo Torriatte is the danger, while Taxhaven might be tough to keep out of the minor places.
