Forecasts

Roaming Spirit (7/4), Plus Four (9/4), Fully Loaded (4/1), Pennsylvania (9/2), The Specialist (16/1), Passage Of Power (18/1), Silver Tudor (18/1), Cosmic Star (28/1), Abound (50/1)

PENNSYLVANIA was much improved again last time and can take this. Roaming Spirit is probably the main threat, while Fully Loaded is the tentative selection for third.
