Forecasts

Mill Queen (13/8), Bold Jazz (2/1), Vars Vicky (2/1), Fire And Ice (5/1), Kayla's Champ (6/1), The Contractor (13/2)

MILL QUEEN got back on track on her most recent outing and is the one to beat. The Contractor is the rational second option, while Kayla's Champ is prominent among those with minor place claims.
