Forecasts

Baby Dont Hurt Me (7/2), Gilded Butterfly (4/1), Abalus (5/1), Theroseofbecharre (7/1), Evening Rise (15/2), Wokonda (8/1), Verolina (8/1), Queen Anne's Lace (12/1), Louvain (20/1), Mamaquera (25/1), Saint Anastasia (25/1), No Time Is Taken (28/1), Timeforthat (33/1), Wings Of Nike (40/1), Me Time (40/1)

ABALUS should be on the premises. Evening Rise has to come into the equation, while Louvain might also be hard to keep out of the minor money at least.
