Forecasts

Storyland (3/1), Looks Like Magic (9/2), Trippin The Stars (5/1), Valeriana (6/1), Elusive Diva (13/2), Red Berry (7/1), Blonde Vision (15/2), Winter Five (12/1), Olivine (16/1), Neverletugo (25/1), Scolding (50/1)

VALERIANA looks marginally the pick in this field but has little margin for error. Winter Five is the most pragmatic second option, while Looks Like Magic looks the one for the minor money.
