Forecasts

Opera Swing (3/1), Opulence (10/3), Chroniclesofnania (9/2), Demigod (5/1), Miss Millstream (8/1), Rosa Dourada (9/1), Dutchessburnedette (10/1), Angel Of Justice (18/1), Mrs Hotline (28/1), Ladyhawke (28/1), Colorama (28/1), Arion Of Adrast (28/1), Country Flame (100/1)

CHRONICLESOFNANIA couldn't satisfy backers last time, but still makes most appeal of these. Rosa Dourada could provide the chief threat, while Opera Swing is another that should go well.
