Forecasts

Ceuta (4/5), Silky Jet (2/1), City Lights (8/1), Whistledown (17/2), Hallowed Secret (12/1), Brilliant Color (22/1), Path Fairy (25/1), Exquisite Dawn (25/1), Scarlet (33/1), Bacardi Babe (66/1)

CEUTA is quite easily the best of these on form and sets a high standard. Brilliant Color is another who could play a big role in proceedings having her first run, while City Lights has a place chance as well.
