Forecasts

Spirit Of Levana (6/4), Ice Rain (11/4), Broadway Girl (7/2), Ginger Delight (11/2), African Beat (9/1), Ice Sunsation (12/1), Izibulo (25/1)

BROADWAY GIRL is just about best of these all things considered. Ice Rain is probably the main opposition, while Ginger Delight can fight it out for minor honours.
