Forecasts

Time For Love (15/8), Rainbow Lorikeet (11/4), Luna Halo (11/2), Crimson Princess (6/1), Essential (16/1), Strange Magic (20/1), Rockie Reef (20/1), Woman's World (22/1), Official Secret (25/1), Chere For Me (28/1), Lady Mistico (28/1), Public Benefit (33/1), Time For Glory (50/1)

Verdict

CRIMSON PRINCESS has been running creditably of late and will probably take the beating. Luna Halo could be the biggest competition, while Rockie Reef can make the first three as well.
