Forecasts

Masked Angel (9/4), Hasiyna (3/1), Just Jump (4/1), Turn Up The Beat (5/1), Steel Magnolia (8/1), Snowballs (8/1), Arctic Steps (12/1), Mark's One (18/1), Carmina Burana (28/1), Star Allure (80/1)

MASKED ANGEL arrives in good form and looks well worth a try in headgear. She gets the nod. Turn Up The Beat and Hasiyna rate the principal dangers.
