Forecasts

Winter Waves (9/4), Casimiro (11/2), Lady Serena (7/1), Walton Hall (15/2), Montana Sky (8/1), Cafe Pacifica (17/2), Master Vision (11/1), Arrow's Mark (14/1), Admiral Birnham (18/1), Duchess Of Sussex (18/1), Dinetto (20/1), Prospero (25/1), Sweet William (28/1), Extract (33/1), Saipan (33/1)

PROSPERO is going to be hard to beat if just as effective at this different trip. Casimiro is most likely the chief danger, while Master Vision is another to bear in mind.
