Forecasts

Impersonation (13/8), Island Beauty (2/1), Efficient Trader (4/1), Lady Zultanite (7/1), Eden Of Africa (12/1), Double Joy (14/1), Pink Diamond (33/1), Voshaarnooi (33/1), Aunt Pittypat (33/1)

ISLAND BEAUTY has been operating at a solid level lately and has leading claims. Efficient Trader seems best of the rest, while Impersonation merits respect also.
