Forecasts

Terra Time (9/4), Southern Song (11/4), Kind Judy (7/2), Princess Kesh (4/1), Ballroom Bliss (4/1), Dark Travel (17/2), Opera Glass (16/1), Snow Palace (18/1)

BALLROOM BLISS's recent form just about edges this but she can't afford to put a foot wrong. Princess Kesh earns the vote for second, while Terra Time also requires respect.
