Forecasts

Lady Of The Flame (11/4), Lagertha (3/1), Spectral (7/2), Divine Isadora (7/1), Jamaheery (11/1), Bold Leah (11/1), Riveting (14/1), Sheltering Sky (18/1), Venician Sky (18/1), Signed And Sealed (20/1), Time Has Come (28/1), Winter Mission (28/1)

SPECTRAL is arguably the one they have to beat. Bold Leah could provide the most competition, while Lady Of The Flame is perhaps the most interesting of those left.
