Forecasts

Gideon's Daughter (1/1), Ponderosa Pine (7/2), Elusive Mata (7/2), Sky Velocity (13/2), Dumisani (8/1), Tempelhoff (25/1), Set For Life (25/1), Quirk Of Fate (25/1), My Mistress (25/1), Celtic Vixen (25/1), Lava Fields (25/1), Painted Beauty (66/1)

ELUSIVE MATA has a very good chance on what she has achieved so far and is the one they all have to beat. Sky Velocity is not one to underestimate all the same, while Gideon's Daughter edges things for third.
