Forecasts

Desert Dog (7/4), Director (9/4), Ms Galore (3/1), Light The Fire (6/1), Dee Dee's Delight (17/2), Devil's Peak (14/1), Manikongo (33/1), Captain Lightning (66/1), Ada Lovelace (80/1), Baba Joshua (100/1)

DIRECTOR is arguably the one the others have to beat. Ms Galore should be thereabouts as well, while Dee Dee's Delight is another to bear in mind.
