Forecasts

Sworder Street (11/8), Crown Towers (11/4), Hexatonic (7/1), Jack Of Hearts (15/2), Duc D'Orange (9/1), Silver Rose (12/1), Mangrove (14/1), American Indian (22/1), Caliente (22/1), Wealthy (33/1)

JACK OF HEARTS is probably the best recommendation but hasn't much room for error. Sworder Street has the best credentials of the remainder, while Hexatonic also commands a closer look.
