Forecasts

Time Fo Orchids (10/11), Woman Of Power (9/2), Virgin River (5/1), Rani Of Kittur (10/1), Ice Star (11/1), Wings Within Me (12/1), Global Thunder (14/1), White Hills (25/1), Mythical Dream (25/1), Rockets Red Glare (28/1)

WINGS WITHIN ME looks marginally the best of this bunch but it's open. Woman Of Power will seemingly provide most resistance, while White Hills might be worth siding with for third.
