Forecasts

The Night Ferry (2/1), Turbo Twenty (7/2), Note To Self (7/2), Mela Strength (6/1), Miss New York (9/1), Hiawatha Goldberg (12/1), Prince Of Tibet (14/1), Tres Chic (16/1), Summer Night City (20/1), Gnarly (33/1)

MELA STRENGTH gets a narrow vote in an open race. Note To Self looks the most dangerous opponent, while Hiawatha Goldberg deserves some consideration as well.
