Forecasts

It Must Be Love (11/4), Croisette (7/2), Glitter And Gold (9/2), Lavu Lavu (8/1), Nikiya (10/1), Deerupt (10/1), Ginger Biscuit (11/1), Sofia Erin (12/1), Beat It (14/1), Clock Stopper (20/1), Winter Whistle (22/1), Someone Exciting (25/1)

GINGER BISCUIT is as good as ever judged on her latest effort and sets the standard. Someone Exciting is most likely the toughest opposition, while It Must Be Love commands a second look as well.
