Forecasts

Defender Of Rights (8/11), Fashionigma (3/1), Sacred Valley (7/1), Pink Diamond (7/1), In The Ether (15/2), Crown Plaza (15/2), Raising A Storm (12/1), Pretty In Pearls (12/1), Destiny Rules (20/1), Generous Apache (40/1), Editta (100/1)

DEFENDER OF RIGHTS fell short of market expectations last time, but is taken to make the most of this opening. Pink Diamond is hard to ignore in the search for second, while Crown Plaza also commands consideration.
