Forecasts

Ice Rain (9/4), One Smart Cookie (5/2), Forward Motion (3/1), Sonic Jet (13/2), African Beat (8/1), Blue Horizon (12/1), Safe And Sound (18/1), Go Like Flo (25/1)

FORWARD MOTION is just about the safest pick but has little margin for error. One Smart Cookie could emerge as the main danger, while African Beat can win the battle for minor honours.
