Forecasts

Life Of Dreams (4/5), Atlantis (15/2), Perfect Alibi (9/1), Suzy's Shoes (10/1), Discretion (10/1), Pawapuri (12/1), Banned (18/1), Ring Fenced (25/1), Baroque Star (28/1), Dancing Tango (50/1), Craft In Silk (66/1), Spyfall (80/1), Hermonie (150/1), Flora Macdonald (150/1), Gold Charm (200/1)

LIFE OF DREAMS is bred to be very useful and hails from a yard among the winners so she gets the nod at the chief expense of fellow debutante Atlantis, who also rates a good prospect on paper. Discretion appeals as the pick of those with experience while Perfect Alibi and Ring Fences are other newcomers to consider in a maiden where the betting will reveal plenty.
