Forecasts

Fleeting (11/4), Whatsinadream (4/1), Perfect Trust (6/1), River Cafe (7/1), Island Treasure (8/1), Treasure Hunt (9/1), Miss Millstream (12/1), Panzanella (12/1), Margin Call (12/1), Double Check (20/1), Global Goddess (22/1), Enchanted Creek (25/1), Thrilla (40/1), Hammie's Fan (66/1)

TREASURE HUNT just about gets the nod but it promises to be touch and go. Margin Call is the most realistic next preference, while Miss Millstream also commands scrutiny.
