Forecasts

Gerbera (1/1), Cherry Oh Baby (5/2), Asiah's Tiara (6/1), Izanami (6/1), Lacewing (15/2), Intro (8/1), Mischief Managed (28/1), Quello Che (40/1), Red Sparrow (40/1)

GERBERA's overall form just puts her out in front. Lacewing seemingly poses the biggest danger, while Cherry Oh Baby demands respect as well.
