Forecasts

Blue Horizon (5/2), Duenna (3/1), Ceuta (10/3), Alabama Anna (9/2), Queen Of Love (6/1), That's My Baby (8/1), Godspeed (12/1), Lucy In The Sky (20/1), Damostar (33/1)

ALABAMA ANNA could be the way to go. Ceuta is probably the main threat, while Blue Horizon commands a closer look as well.
