Forecasts

Shine In Memphis (5/2), Best Intentions (5/2), Bytheliteofthemoon (3/1), Queen Ofthe Palace (4/1), What Now My Gal (10/1), Ponte Vecchio (12/1), Bella Attrice (14/1), Montreal (33/1), Elusive Hunter (66/1), Big Spender (66/1), Spring In Her Step (66/1), Over The Moon (80/1)

BYTHELITEOFTHEMOON has fewer question marks about her than the others but it promises to be touch and go. Queen Ofthe Palace can come out best of the remainder, while Best Intentions is another with the potential to be on the premises.
