Forecasts

Humdinger (11/4), Dance Lesson (11/4), Elusive Current (5/1), Say When (6/1), Golden Spoon (11/1), Fromheretoeternity (14/1), Magical Flight (14/1), Prairie Falcon (14/1), Sweet And Spicy (14/1), Princess Philippa (14/1), Kayla's Champ (22/1), Hollywoodbound (25/1), Dancing Arabian (33/1), Rock You (50/1)

HUMDINGER sets the bar, albeit not too high. Prairie Falcon is second option, with Golden Spoon also interesting.
