Forecasts

Sea Sponge (2/1), What A Blast (11/4), Straight Up (10/3), Follow My Path (8/1), Linnbara (11/1), Cherokee Chief (12/1), Philispiel (16/1), Master George (18/1), Rocky Coast (28/1), Top Salute (33/1), Putchini (40/1), Silver Cent (40/1)

WHAT A BLAST should be thereabouts but will need to be on song. Sea Sponge has to come into the equation too, while Master George looks another that has to be reckoned with.
