Forecasts

Verdict

A few of these have questions to answer but promising to be suited by this step back in trip, D'JO DELA BARRIERE gets the tentative vote over Despereaux, who scored over C&D when last seen in November and a 6 lb higher mark shouldn't prove insurmountable. Dwight K Schrute edges the vote over Don Rafael for third.
