Forecasts

Royal Mermaid (11/10), Royal Missy (2/1), Oh Mandy (5/2), Golden Alexia (10/1), Lacryma Christi (18/1), Lilic Heart (40/1), Cedarpeak (50/1)

ROYAL MERMAID looks marginally the pick of these but can't afford to put a foot wrong. Oh Mandy can come out best of the rest, while Royal Missy merits respect also.
