Forecasts

Twenty Drachma's (6/4), Exhale (11/4), Gamer (7/2), Karoo Gold (4/1), District Twelve (4/1), Taxhaven (12/1), Crimson Forest (25/1), Play With Fire (28/1), Duellona (33/1), Impression (40/1)

TWENTY DRACHMA'S has a quite marked edge on form and will take plenty of beating. Exhale could have the most to offer of the others, while District Twelve is in the running for a share of the minor money.
