Forecasts

So They Say (5/2), Southern Song (11/4), Future Lady (4/1), Mamaquera (7/1), Anatura (8/1), Afternoon Tea (8/1), Emaline (9/1), Evening Rise (14/1), Louvain (20/1), Milan's Princess (20/1), Galaxy Raiders (40/1), Suntrax (50/1), Now You See Me (66/1), Golden Spiral (80/1), Paschals Samore (80/1)

SO THEY SAY has been running well and should make a bold show. Mamaquera could be the chief danger, while Afternoon Tea also has claims.
