Forecasts

Glacier Gold (7/4), Winter Furi (11/4), Franca (9/2), Variety Breeze (9/1), Afternoon Tea (10/1), Delicasea (10/1), Victoria Tower (16/1), Bad Habit (16/1), Aye Aye (25/1), State Of Mind (33/1), Pot Sox (33/1)

GLACIER GOLD was much improved in her most latest start and is arguably the one to aim at. Bad Habit rates the main threat, while Variety Breeze is another to consider.
