Forecasts

Green Dream (9/4), Hatta (4/1), Poppy Of Bayeux (4/1), Chelsea River (13/2), Blue Sails (8/1), Qaaraat (9/1), Indigo Moon (12/1), Magicallee (14/1), Sea Of Tranquility (16/1), Not Now Pussycat (16/1), Rain Wear (18/1)

QAARAAT is back in good form and should take the beating. Hatta is the most likely threat, while Sea of Tranquility can scrap it out for third.
