Forecasts

Aspoestertjie (4/1), Spirited Flight (9/2), Shona Kirsty Yves (9/2), Cinnamon Blush (5/1), Bitcoin Baby (5/1), Arverni Princess (5/1), Noble Storm (11/2), Mission Rocks (7/1), Star Choice (16/1), Witchwood (25/1), Princess Arlowe (25/1)

SHONA KIRSTY YVES just about gets the nod in this company. Spirited Flight is fancied as the best alternative, while Aspoestertjie also demands a closer look.
