Forecasts

Imilenzeyokududuma (4/1), Mucho Dinero (5/1), Oriental Charm (11/2), Jordan (11/2), Shoemaker (6/1), Ponte Pietra (6/1), Narina Trogon (10/1), Celestial City (18/1), Navajo Nation (22/1), Sundance Kid (25/1), Noble City (25/1), Sovereign State (40/1)

SHOEMAKER is running well enough to take this but it's open. Sundance Kid should be thereabouts come the business end, while Imilenzeyokududuma may grab a bit more place money.
