Forecasts

Emerald Crest (7/4), Too Phat To Fly (4/1), Dubawi Princess (4/1), Brooklyn Bridge (11/2), May Queen (6/1), Rise As One (12/1), Desert Pride (14/1), Decadent Lady (16/1), Perfect Angel (22/1), Cream Soda (22/1)

RISE AS ONE looks the one they all have to beat. Brooklyn Bridge has the best credentials of the remainder, while Perfect Angel might be worth siding with for third.
