Forecasts

Regina George (5/1), Party Rebel (11/2), Broughtons Flare (11/2), Liam's Lass (6/1), Zafaranah (7/1), Point Louise (8/1), Defilade (9/1), Makambe (12/1), Aussie Rascal (12/1), Smart Qibili (14/1), Phlegon (22/1), Chiavari (28/1), Pips Tune (40/1)

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest, and REGINA GEORGE is taken to open her account after her excellent recent second over C&D. Broughtons Flare comes here on the back of his own C&D victory and is feared most with course winner Defilade appealing as the pick of the remainder for place purposes.
