Forecasts

Willie John (9/4), Green Mandarin (4/1), Future Turn (9/2), Fibonacci (9/2), Nevada King (9/2), Allez Moris (13/2), Future Prince (15/2), Infrared (10/1), Lindbergh (20/1)

ALLEZ MORIS is probably the best recommendation but it's open. Nevada King could be the toughest threat, while Willie John is another with a place chance too.
