Forecasts

Dreamy (6/5), Alla Stella (5/2), Fiery Lucy (11/2), Lady Mairen (7/1), Lady O (8/1), Garden Of Eden (16/1), Sigh No More (22/1), Bay Colony (50/1), Charanda (200/1)

DREAMY has the potential for considerable improvement on the back of her Glorious Goodwood debut success and can take the step up in class in her stride. Sir Mark Prescott's Alla Stella shaped well in a Sandown listed race last time and is second choice ahead of Fiery Lucy.
