Forecasts

Quantum Theory (1/1), Night Bomber (10/3), Slinky Mapimpi (9/2), Espinoza (12/1), Kamensky (14/1), Chyavana (16/1), Cosmic Star (20/1), Red Bomber (20/1), Lead The Charge (28/1)

SLINKY MAPIMPI can win again. Quantum Theory is some stern opposition, while Espinoza is another with the potential to be on the premises.
