Forecasts

Rendevous In Rio (11/4), Fire In Her Soul (11/4), Power Of Pearls (11/4), Inspiration (9/2), A Good Heart (7/1), Raceway (10/1), Chilli Marmalade (40/1), Sapphire Storm (50/1)

FIRE IN HER SOUL can take this. Inspiration can get the better of the remainder for second, while Raceway is another likely to be on the premises.
