Forecasts

Roaming Spirit (7/4), Accept Cookies (4/1), Golden Moment (9/2), Princess Ilaria (5/1), Mocha Macaroon (15/2), Perini Palace (12/1), Sea Anemone (12/1), Last Ginger (20/1), Lady Majorca (25/1), We Will Rock You (40/1), Can't Catch Me (66/1)

ROAMING SPIRIT continues to operate somewhere near current peak and is probably the one to beat. Mocha Macaroon is most likely the chief threat, while Princess Ilaria has a place chance as well.
