Forecasts

Sugar Mountain (9/4), Shavout (7/2), Van Hunks (4/1), The Futurist (8/1), Silent War (11/1), I Want It All (14/1), Global Ally (14/1), Northern Song (16/1), Keep It Secret (16/1), Lion's Head (16/1), Faire Advantage (20/1), Bayview Express (25/1), Night Song (66/1)

SHAVOUT is running well enough to take this but hasn't much room for error. Van Hunks seems the leading threat, while Bayview Express might be worth siding with for third.
