Forecasts

Teatime Tipple (3/1), Boom Shakalaka (10/3), Stars In Heaven (9/2), Gimmethegoodlife (6/1), Tobacconist (8/1), Rototo (10/1), Beach Palace (12/1), Burning Man (12/1), Bob (14/1), Record High (16/1), Super Fast (40/1)

TOBACCONIST just about gets the nod in this field. Beach Palace is a sound alternative, while Burning Man also requires a second look.
