Forecasts

Candy Warhol (13/8), Due Date (9/2), Supernova Steps (9/2), Black Cab (6/1), Tommytwohoots (12/1), Savalas (12/1), May Remain (16/1), Mehmo (16/1), Vitalline (16/1), Bankrupt (16/1), Araifjan (25/1), Rain Cap (25/1), Snow Boots (80/1)

A case can be made for lots of these but the vote goes to BLACK CAB who took a step forward when fifth here on his recent handicap bow, despite not being seen to ideal effect, and can build on it now. C&D winner Due Date is next on the list, with Supernova Steps, Candy Warhol and Mehmo all in the picture too.
