Forecasts

Emma Prada (7/4), Arch Melody (4/1), Let Her Flow (9/2), Mezyan (6/1), Roisins Ciara (8/1), Hoganville (12/1), Trenchtown Rock (12/1), Tender Heart (14/1), Arctic Sofia (16/1), War Eagle (16/1), Hockworthy Flyer (20/1), Boston Brahmin (25/1), Presenting Cody (28/1), The Cilleens (33/1), Mystery Mac (40/1), Ballyeden Lass (50/1), Fly Little Bird (66/1)
