Forecasts

Echo Lima (5/2), Sheila's Paradise (4/1), Times Edition (4/1), Sir Gabrial (11/2), Great Acclaim (7/1), How's The Guvnor (9/1), Cavalry Call (18/1)

Preference is for ECHO LIMA, who is going the right way and begins her handicap career off a workable mark. Sheila's Paradise and Times Edition are feared most.
