Forecasts

The Playboy Bomber (9/4), Gimmeachoice (9/4), Jordan (11/4), Vesuvio (13/2), Imperial Master (7/1), Dj Junior (15/2), Skittles Skies (8/1), Banha Bridge (18/1), River Romeo (28/1)

JORDAN earns the narrow vote. The Playboy Bomber is probably the biggest danger, although Vesuvio also commands a second look.
