Forecasts

Laetitia's Angel (11/4), Baby Dont Hurt Me (3/1), Feather The Nest (4/1), Twice As Wild (9/2), Scottadito (8/1), Red Carpet Girl (9/1), Space Race (11/1), Sabrina Fairchild (20/1), Gal Gadot (25/1), Dancing Dora (25/1)

LAETITIA'S ANGEL continues to operate somewhere near current peak and has a fair chance. Feather The Nest is probably the sternest opposition, while Baby Dont Hurt Me is perhaps the most interesting of the others.
