Forecasts

Glacier Gold (15/8), Afternoon Tea (11/4), Variety Breeze (11/4), Mesmerizing Moon (9/1), Victoria Tower (9/1), Bad Habit (10/1), Flaming Lass (25/1)

MESMERIZING MOON looks marginally the best of this bunch but can't afford for much to go wrong. Glacier Gold also comes into the equation, while Variety Breeze isn't entirely out of it either.
