Forecasts

Bless My Stars (6/4), Dawnofanewday (9/2), Silver Darling (5/1), Gilded Butterfly (8/1), Hold My Hand (8/1), Saartjie (12/1), Marina (14/1), Macara (28/1), Capetown Beauty (33/1), Rock The Fox (40/1), Virginia Sweet (40/1), Roy's T's (66/1), Electric Surge (80/1)

MACARA looks to have been found a good opening. if this different trip to usual isn't an inconvenience. Silver Darling is tough to ignore if looking elsewhere, while Hold My Hand also has claims.
