Forecasts

Princess Palace (13/8), The Queen Bee (3/1), Elusive Belle (5/1), Head Girl (11/2), Pink Diamond (6/1), Firecracker (8/1), Mistress Rebecca (8/1), My True Love (25/1)

PINK DIAMOND is in a good vein of form and has leading claims. Head Girl is the most realistic next preference, while The Queen Bee is another to come into the reckoning.
