Forecasts

Masters Queen (2/1), Silver Slippers (9/2), Keepingthepeace (5/1), Opera Swing (7/1), Do Si Do (9/1), Miss Millstream (12/1), Golden Archer (12/1), Alaskan Fate (14/1), One Bite At A Time (18/1), Beneficiary (22/1), Absolutely Fab (22/1), Red Rules (40/1), Sparkling Flame (99/1)

ALASKAN FATE is running well enough to take this but it promises to be touch and go. One Bite At A Time could be the toughest opponent, while Masters Queen shouldn't be ruled out.
