Forecasts

Tail Of The Comet (2/5), Just Be Lekker (7/1), Coastal Commander (17/2), Girl Like Us (12/1), Monumental (16/1), Connery (25/1), Spring Palace (25/1), Public Benefit (28/1), Sail To The Moon (33/1), Dumbledore (33/1), Ticket To Vegas (33/1), Lily Of The Nile (40/1), Passchendaele (50/1), Easy Money (66/1)

JUST BE LEKKER has slender claims but will need to be firing on all cylinders. Tail Of The Comet could be the main threat, while Girl Like Us is another with the potential to be on the premises.
