Forecasts

King Pelles (9/4), Jp's Palace (7/2), Gimmefabulous (11/2), Okavango (13/2), Imposing (13/2), Field Marshal (9/1), Claw (20/1), Madison Valley (20/1), Shoot The Rapids (28/1)

FIELD MARSHAL has strong claims. Jp's Palace should be thereabouts too, while Imposing looks the one for the minor money.
