Forecasts

Samoa (3/1), Imposing Angel (10/3), Insatiable (4/1), Time Is Ticking (11/2), Allez Les Bleu (8/1), Verinova (17/2), Bethany (14/1), Feather The Nest (16/1), Paityns Pride (20/1), Miss Magician (20/1), Vantage Point (22/1), Twelve Oaks (28/1), Jam Fancy (33/1), Love Bite (40/1), Grecia (40/1), Magic Choice (40/1)

TIME IS TICKING should be in the mix but will need to be on song. Samoa is another who could have a big say in matters, while Insatiable also requires respect.
