Forecasts

With Thanks (2/1), Silk Forest (9/2), So Wonderful (13/2), Soul Search (7/1), Best On Stage (11/1), Baraniya (14/1), Rocket Science (14/1), A New Dawn (16/1), Secret Pulse (25/1), Miss Myers (28/1), Hidden Sky (33/1), Ridenza (33/1), Simply A Breeze (33/1), Darkest (66/1), Come September (80/1)

This is a fiercely competitive affair with a number of fillies in with a decent chance. British-raider WITH THANKS looks the answer though as she is progressing with her racing for her top trainer and she goes on the ground. So Wonderful brings the best form into the race and will be a significant danger. Best On Stage is one of several with each-way claims.
