Forecasts

Outer Dimension (7/4), Darling Harbour (2/1), Play With Fire (7/2), Crimson Forest (9/2), Perform (6/1), Martinique (11/1), Voshaarnooi (25/1), All Rise (33/1)

PLAY WITH FIRE should be bang there but this is an open race. Darling Harbour has the strongest claims of the remainder, while Outer Dimension has a good shout of a share of the minor money.
