Forecasts

She's A Keeper (5/4), Light Of The Moon (3/1), Pink Tourmaline (15/2), Follow The Star (15/2), Keep On Dancing (14/1), Princess Anastasia (20/1), Bye Bye Bombshell (20/1), Silver Maria (28/1), Greengrowthelilacs (28/1), Aquae Sulis (28/1), Black Silver (28/1), Scented Mistress (33/1), Opera Glass (33/1), Lyrical Dance (50/1)

SHE'S A KEEPER looks to have more or less the best credentials but it promises to be touch and go. Light Of The Moon is the percentage call to finish runner-up, while Opera Glass can scrap it out for third.
