Forecasts

Bonnaroo (2/5), Hildelita (8/1), Glass Shoes (17/2), Vihzoe's Magic (11/1), Esther (11/1), Pam's Princess (12/1), Sweet The Sound (16/1), Rainbow Thief (18/1), Ready To Fly (22/1), Chere For Me (33/1), Buttercup (50/1)

GLASS SHOES has been operating at a good level lately and is the one they all have to beat. Sweet The Sound is fancied as the best bet for second, while Rainbow Thief is perhaps the most interesting of the others.
