Its a bit hard to tell from the picture. It looks like the 1 on the top left is, but it will get a fair amount bigger before actually dropping fry. When was the last time they were in contact with a male?
 
Thanks are these any better I bought them Sunday from a garden centre but noticed there were some males in the tank one has a bigger black spot and does look bigger in the belly than the other 2 I think the one with the orange fin is and mayb the yellow fin but not overly shore about the blue fin thanks again for ur help

I do think the one with the bright orange/red tail looks a like she might be. The other 2 do not look pregnant, but there is a good chance that they are since they were being kept with males. Keep an eye on them and see if they start to get bigger. After being in contact with a male, female guppies can store sperm for up to 3 months. So, they may all have mated and time will tell if they are pregnant or not.
 
Thanks again for ur help much apreshated I gues only time will tell
 
I have two females for 6 wks thought they were pregnant has the spot but no babys as of yet. Have them in with males as of today good luck with the babys
