CLUELESS 188
Welcome to Clueless, our informal weekly clue-setting competition.

The idea is to compose a cryptic clue to a given word or phrase.

The winner of the previous week’s competition both sets the word to be clued and judges the entries for the current week.

The judge’s decision is final; reasons may or may not be given at the judge’s discretion. It is customary for the judge to donate a virtual prize to the winner.

To be fair to others, please do not make any comments on entries until after the winner has been declared.

Multiple entries may be submitted and new competitors are particularly welcome!
This week’s word is:
PREDICTION (10)
Clues to be submitted by 1800 GMT tomorrow (12th November) with the winner being announced soon after.

Good luck everyone!

Soft drink turning alcoholic into something to behold? (10)

The Amazing Randi copied its design and said "Ignore this psychic reading" (10)

Cut out the French fancy...you will lose weight! (10)

bbm2
Could you parse yours for me please? It looks like a subtractive, but I'm not quite seeing it.

Chris: If I may venture to parse on behalf of bbm2, it's "randi copied its" minus "said": I think you'll find that works out!

Thanks GK - I was including too much!

The French abandon bent forecast? (10)
