Forecasts

Apache Dream (13/8), Palace Queen (7/2), Run Florist Run (5/1), Duchess Of State (5/1), Bold Diva (8/1), Larentina (9/1), Thandekhile (18/1), Double Reward (25/1), World Squared (28/1), Virtuosa (33/1)

RUN FLORIST RUN looks marginally the best of these but it's an open race. Palace Queen could be the toughest opponent, while Duchess Of State might well have a say too.
