Forecasts

Ubermensch (7/2), Xtatic (4/1), Late Bloomer (9/2), Hopscotch (15/2), Commander Of All (15/2), Sail The Sky (15/2), World Order (11/1), Gunboat (12/1), King Bluetooth (12/1), Thambi (12/1), Bold Action (25/1)

XTATIC has good claims. Hopscotch is a danger, while Sail The Sky edges it as the selection for third.
