Forecasts

What A Honey (6/4), Sky Glitter (9/2), Rising Fenix (11/2), Feather The Nest (13/2), Java House (9/1), Little Rain (11/1), Paityns Pride (14/1), Theroseofbecharre (14/1), Western View (16/1), Petunia (18/1), Gal Gadot (20/1), Last Song (25/1), Zulu War Cry (40/1), Sea Of Tranquility (50/1), Watching Closely (66/1)

Verdict

WHAT A HONEY is selected tentatively but has little room for error. Petunia could provide the chief danger, while Theroseofbecharre could go well too.
