Forecasts

Another Dream (5/2), Terminal Velocity (7/2), Promise Of Fire (7/2), Fine Wine (4/1), Alex Miller (15/2), Scarlett Heart (8/1), Royal Mermaid (14/1), Takatalvi (33/1), Austrian Beauty (50/1), Winter Glade (50/1), Hurricane Flight (66/1), Futano (66/1), Q For Love (66/1), Yinmn Blue (80/1)

ROYAL MERMAID recorded an excellent effort on her latest run and is the one to beat. Terminal Velocity should chase the selection home, while Alex Miller should go well too.
