Forecasts

Love Is A Rose (7/4), Fleeting (33/10), Academic Gold (10/3), Bye Bye Bombshell (10/3), Greengrowthelilacs (9/2), Veronica Mars (8/1), Follow The Star (14/1)

ACADEMIC GOLD holds her form well and is the one they all have to beat. Bye Bye Bombshell is probably the chief threat, while Love Is A Rose commands a second look.
