Forecasts

On The Guest List (3/1), Lady Writer (10/3), Trip To Barberton (7/2), Get It Done (4/1), Izhiestia (4/1), Turnthebeataround (11/2), Soft Touch (16/1), Josi Mo (25/1), Respectable Miss (28/1), Racinante (33/1), Rosa Rossa (33/1), Trump My Queen (33/1), Miss Tucker (40/1)

GET IT DONE should be thereabouts but it's an open race. Izhiestia is hard to ignore if looking elsewhere, while On The Guest List shouldn't be ruled out.
