Forecasts

Pax Britannica (13/8), Flying Standard (5/2), Calvinist (9/1), Abound (11/1), Social City (11/1), Wildomar (14/1), Arietta (14/1), Bird To Love (18/1), Heron (28/1), Hidden Pearl (50/1), Lady Alexandria (80/1), Sukie Two (100/1), Pass Card (150/1)

PAX BRITANNICA looked more tractable and duly showed improved form when scoring over shorter at Wolverhampton 10 days ago. Unexposed over staying trips, that ought not to prove her limit and she's fancied to go well again. Fellow last-time-out winner Flying Standard is an obvious threat, along with Abound and Arietta.
