Forecasts

Minstrel Gallery (3/1), Yaya Maria (7/2), I'm In Love (4/1), Mercurial Jet (5/1), White Witch (13/2), Hazy Crazy Night (15/2), Elusive Jewel (12/1), St Patrick's Day (20/1), Montana Nymph (33/1), Zayhaan (33/1), Alyeska (33/1), Miss United States (50/1)

MERCURIAL JET seems likely to take the beating. I'm In Love looks the best back-up, while Yaya Maria is another to bear in mind.
