Forecasts

Regulation (5/2), Native Ruler (3/1), Major Master (4/1), Okavango (9/2), Zeitz (17/2), The Equator (12/1), I Salute You (25/1), La Pulga (28/1), Legend Of Arthur (40/1), Master Redoute (80/1)

THE EQUATOR makes plenty of appeal. I Salute You could be the chief threat, while Regulation also demands a closer look.
