Forecasts

Wind Water (4/11), Covert Operator (10/3), Fort Apache (10/1), Last Survivor (16/1), Egyptian King (20/1), Tincture Time (25/1), Bowl First (28/1), Blyde River (28/1), Namaqua Red (33/1), Stella Brillante (33/1)

WIND WATER made a promising debut and is probably the one to beat. Covert Operator could be the main danger, while Fort Apache also comes into the reckoning.
