Forecasts

Monsieur Fantaisie (3/1), Little Red Dancer (4/1), Q Twenty Boy (5/1), Universal Grace (5/1), Due Date (6/1), Furnicoe (6/1), Viewfromthestars (15/2), Kangaroo (17/2), Hard Solution (18/1), Moveonup (40/1), Tilsworth Turf (66/1), Seeking Perfection (100/1), Alya's Gold Award (125/1), Bringhomethebacon (150/1)

UNIVERSAL GRACE got going too late at Lingfield last week and can bounce back to winning ways returned to the scene of her previous victory. Q Twenty Boy and Due Date are feared.
