Forecasts

Oklahoma Twister (3/1), Gamer (9/2), Majalun (5/1), Sheets And Goggles (5/1), Sunshine Day (11/2), Commander Of All (8/1), Blurred Vision (17/2), Vava Vegas (11/1), Madame Pompadour (16/1), Lapis Lazuli (25/1)

MAJALUN just about gets the nod. Oklahoma Twister should be thereabouts too, while Sunshine Day edges it as the selection for third.
