Forecasts

First Smile (13/8), Forever Grateful (5/2), Samoot (5/2), Secret To Success (5/1), Positive Mentality (13/2), Baby Alya (10/1), Abundant Moon (16/1), Can Can Girl (22/1), Copper Queen (40/1), Elladora (150/1)

SAMOOT appeals as the type to build on her encouraging Sandown debut and can get off the mark. Forever Grateful could well bounce back from her disappointing effort last time and is feared most, whilst First Smile looks the pick of the newcomers.
