Forecasts

Zayina (7/4), Wisper (9/2), The African Queen (5/1), Aiming High (11/2), Chips And Rice (7/1), Measured Moments (10/1), New Heights (28/1)

ZAYINA is likely to up her game this season and already has a course success to her name, so she's the one to side with over fellow 3-y-o The African Queen, who also won here last term. Wisper is another one to consider based on her terrific record at the track.
