Forecasts

Layla's Daffodil (11/4), Iluvyounow (3/1), What Wonders Weave (7/2), Whosgotyanow (11/2), Belles Benefit (8/1), Hophornbeam (17/2), Leading Prospect (17/2), Derridae (11/1), Will You Win (14/1), Askthebosslady (14/1), Penny Candle (28/1), Shannon Gray (33/1), Argenta (50/1), Innisfree Beauty (80/1), Racey Rita (150/1)

WHAT WONDERS WEAVE was possibly in need of her first start for 7 months when well-held second in a Listowel novice (2m) 32 days ago. However, she's entitled to be sharper now and earns the vote stepping back up in trip in a race lacking depth. Layla's Daffodil and Leading Prospect are a couple of others fancied to get in the mix.
