Forecasts

Cassandra (13/8), Nkwenkwezi (10/3), Dee Day (5/1), Miss Twinkle (11/2), De Vlugge (17/2), Curious Girl (9/1), Baltic Assayer (16/1), East Coast Girl (28/1), Lightinthedarkness (28/1), Zara Diva (33/1), Vinny's Dream (66/1)

CASSANDRA was beaten when prominent in the market last time, but still makes most appeal again. Nkwenkwezi is a threat, while Miss Twinkle is perhaps the most interesting other runner in the line up.
