Forecasts

Miss Fantastic (15/8), Destiny's Dream (3/1), Rendevous In Rio (5/1), Chericherilady (10/1), Polly Plummer (11/1), Twentyoneonscarlet (18/1), Bright Comet (20/1), Erik's Girl (20/1), Vindolanda (20/1), Artifact (22/1), Spring Tide (22/1), Baby Red (22/1), Miss River Dancer (25/1), Beautiful One (25/1), Gathering Winter (25/1), Platinum Shay (25/1), Shiraz Glow (25/1)

MISS FANTASTIC seems likely to take the beating. Rendevous In Rio could be the biggest competition, while Destiny's Dream shouldn't be discarded.
