Forecasts

Courageous (3/1), Komesans Passion (7/2), Ice Cap (9/2), Blue Palace (6/1), Colorama (9/1), Perfect Trust (10/1), Thread Of Life (12/1), Midwicket (12/1), Duellona (14/1), Iqembulabesifazane (14/1), Little Lexi (18/1), Bretty (22/1), Sundrop (66/1)

ICE CAP has a fair chance on her return. Duellona could be the chief danger, while Midwicket should also be considered.
