Forecasts

Lucky Miss (15/8), National Star (9/4), Mvulazana (7/2), Kailene (4/1), Woodland Retreat (12/1), Only Hearts (14/1), Acacia's Blossom (16/1), Let It Snow (22/1)

MVULAZANA quickly put an underwhelming run aside last time out and is arguably the one to beat. National Star seems best of the rest, while Only Hearts also demands respect.
