Forecasts

Secret Chord (13/8), Munchkin (9/2), What A Tiger (5/1), Sakhala Is'cathulo (11/2), King Of Venus (8/1), Vegas Hi Rise (10/1), The Navy Lark (11/1), Var Park (14/1), Stormy Seas (28/1)

SAKHALA IS'CATHULO can take this. King Of Venus should be thereabouts, while Munchkin may grab a bit more place money.
