Forecasts

Fateful Day (3/1), Indlamu (7/2), Forever Mine (4/1), Prince Of Fire (6/1), Homely Girl (6/1), Outofthedarkness (13/2), Willow Express (12/1), Sprinkles (16/1), Cirillo (22/1), Johnny Hero (28/1), Expressfromtheus (28/1), Infinite Wonder (33/1)

Verdict

HOMELY GIRL has a fair amount in hand on form and has an excellent chance. Outofthedarkness is just about preferred for second, while Indlamu looks best of the rest.
