Forecasts

Angel Deb's (7/4), Princess Deb's (10/3), Baby Dont Hurt Me (13/2), Klaserie (7/1), Quick Count (9/1), Rhythm Of The Rain (9/1), Afternoon Tea (9/1), Delicasea (16/1), Catch The Cat (16/1)

BABY DONT HURT ME just about appeals most but has little leeway if anything goes wrong. Princess Deb's can get the better of the remainder for second, while Klaserie also commands scrutiny.
