Forecasts

White Seahorse (2/1), Ibutho (9/2), Night Rocker (13/2), Teriyaki (7/1), Pleasedtoseeyou (7/1), The Gliding Fish (10/1), Chinaberry (10/1), Preemptive Strike (11/1), Firelighter (16/1), Amor Fati (22/1), Rodriguez (28/1), Linkin Navigator (40/1)

WHITE SEAHORSE has been in decent form of late and is much the one to aim at. Chinaberry is feared, while Preemptive Strike shouldn't be far away.
