Forecasts

Admire Me (11/4), Sentbydestiny (9/2), Pretty Betty (11/2), Pin Up (6/1), Rosaprima (7/1), Mount Laurel (7/1), Bon Vivant (8/1), Hollywoodbound (9/1), Rouge Allure (14/1), Seehaam (16/1), Saragon (16/1), Opera Glass (25/1), Victoria Paige (33/1)

HOLLYWOODBOUND looks to be the safest option but has next to no margin for error. Admire Me is not one to underestimate however, while Mount Laurel might well have a say too.
