Forecasts

Bloomington (9/4), Toffas (7/2), Back To Basics (9/2), Nordic Rebel (6/1), Jp Two Thousand (7/1), Johnny Dogs (8/1), Pinch Hit (8/1), San Marzano (25/1)

NORDIC REBEL has put together a solid series of recent efforts and has fair claims. Pinch Hit is tough to ignore where second place is concerned, while Bloomington might be hard to keep out of the minor money.
