Forecasts

Grammata (10/11), Moon In Her Eye (7/4), Provocateuse (2/1), Ablah (8/1), Lady Princess (10/1), Shessweet (11/1), Basharat (20/1), Drish Venture (33/1), Caesiere (100/1)

GRAMMATA arrives on the back of a sub-par display but, if she can put that performance behind her, she'd likely be too good for this opposition. She's an obvious choice ahead of Moon In Her Eye, with newcomer Provocateuse also considered.
