Forecasts

Quantum Theory (13/8), Mount Pinatubo (13/8), William Robertson (3/1), Ziyasha (8/1), Ready To Charge (10/1), Chocolate Soldier (16/1), Dreamland (22/1), Frozen Fantasy (28/1), Sheldon (40/1)

QUANTUM THEORY just about gets the nod. Mount Pinatubo could be the chief threat, while Ready To Charge shouldn't be far away either.
