Forecasts

The Villa Grand (3/1), Lucy In The Sky (10/3), Glowtoria (7/2), Zodiac Princess (9/2), Afternoon Tea (7/1), Chloris (7/1), Java House (18/1), Oksana (22/1), Madame Patrice (33/1), Timeforthat (40/1), Countess Helen (50/1), Broadway Babe (50/1)

LUCY IN THE SKY looks marginally the pick of this bunch but it promises to be touch and go. The Villa Grand seems the principal danger, while Glowtoria looks the one for the minor money.
