Forecasts

Mount Pilatus (2/1), Chyavana (7/2), Richard The First (4/1), Passage Of Power (15/2), Rainbow Reward (15/2), Super Awesome (10/1), Tulip Tree (10/1), Fire 'n Flames (11/1), Danilo Danilovitch (12/1), Rollwiththepunches (33/1)

RAINBOW REWARD left his earlier form behind last time and sets a good standard for the others to aim at. Super Awesome could provide the chief opposition, while Mount Pilatus is prominent among those with minor place claims.
