Forecasts

Flama Sunshine (8/11), Devassa (2/1), Arryaaf (11/1), Taswaheen (11/1), La Senora (20/1), Salsabil Princess (50/1), Shimmering Pearl (66/1), Reina Rosso (66/1), Hallandale (66/1), Pocket Phone (66/1), Parisian Beauty (66/1)

FLAMA SUNSHINE holds most of these on their meeting from just two weeks ago and is hard to look past on that effort. Devassa should come on for her recent run and is the most realistic choice for second, while Taswaheen looks third best.
