Forecasts

Fairy Godmother (4/7), Zharova (7/2), Cradle Of Love (7/2), Sparkling Sea (7/1), Cold Hearted (14/1), Red Veil (18/1), Stella Alpina (22/1), Transcending (25/1), Clever And Classy (25/1), Orchidaceae (50/1), Alumni Lia (66/1), Mystic Rose (66/1), Oitentinha (100/1), Trufonic (150/1), Beeswings (200/1)

This maiden has been won by some good fillies in the past. ZHAROVA is one of several likely-looking types and she will be very appealing indeed if the market vibes are upbeat. Aidan O'Brien has saddled three of the last five winners of this race and his representative Fairy Godmother is also of strong interest. The clear pick of the few with experience is Cradle of Love and she merits respect, while Cold Hearted and Sparkling Sea are two more noteworthy debutantes to consider.
