Forecasts

Purple Flower (11/4), Tannen Princess (11/4), Radiant Heat (7/2), Flying Reign Storm (4/1), Madame Pompadour (6/1), Ocean Palace (8/1), The Queen Bee (8/1), Dee Day (18/1), Amber Sky (40/1), Lady Sureyya (66/1)

RADIANT HEAT has marginally the best all-round profile but has little leeway if anything goes wrong. Tannen Princess looks the most dangerous opponent, while Purple Flower edges it so far as third place is concerned.
