Forecasts

Sukhumvit (11/4), Forgiveness (3/1), Donna Mo (5/1), Olivia's Way (13/2), United Council (15/2), Indian Ocean (10/1), Littlemarysunshine (11/1), Lady Fallon (14/1), Champagne Cocktail (22/1), Cape Lights (22/1), Red Maple (22/1), Juliet Tango (80/1)

LITTLEMARYSUNSHINE couldn't justify market support on her most recent run, but still makes most appeal of these. Donna Mo is another who could have a big say in matters, while United Council looks best of the remainder.
