Forecasts

Gimme's Laddie (7/4), Anuschka's World (9/4), Cliff Top (9/2), Khaya's Hope (8/1), The Winter Lake (12/1), Teatro (14/1), Slim Jannie (14/1), Romance In Rome (14/1), Evies First (25/1), First Origin (40/1)

ANUSCHKA'S WORLD is running really well right now and will take all the beating. Cliff Top is difficult to ignore where second place is concerned, while The Winter Lake can scrap it out for third.
