Forecasts

Payment Plan (10/11), Daaris (5/2), Easter Icon (15/2), Grand Duchess Olga (10/1), Sir Joseph Swan (11/1)

The in-form DAARIS has the services of Rossa Ryan and gets a narrow vote ahead of the thriving Payment Plan. Grand Duchess Olga is another who shouldn't be far away in a tight staying event.
