Forecasts

Cerulean Dancer (7/4), Way To Burn (10/3), Calling All Angels (7/2), Vermacilli (9/2), Miss Lialah (7/1), Mystique Rouge (7/1), Gelsomina (12/1), Elusive Belle (16/1)

VERMACILLI headed the market on her latest run, but edges it as the selection once again. Mystique Rouge is the most realistic second preference, while Miss Lialah is also in the running for some place money at least.
