Forecasts

Dubawi Spectre (2/1), Narlita (7/2), Autocrat (4/1), Play It Again Zaam (6/1), Halla Ban (7/1), Stormy Jenn (8/1), Butterfly Garden (8/1), Maralinga (12/1), Pralognan (14/1), Atlantic Island (80/1)

This can go to NARLITA, who only narrowly failed to open her account at Gowran earlier this month and remains on a workable mark. Dubawi Spectre and Autocrat rate the principal dangers.
