Forecasts

No More Kisses (9/4), Lady Kai (9/2), Echinacea (11/2), Pearl Jewel (15/2), Dahab (8/1), Palavar (9/1), Trishuli River (10/1), Preparations (11/1), Lady Plimsoll (12/1), Magna Gee Gee (14/1), Autocrat (16/1), Hosanna Power (16/1), Baila Conmigo (22/1), Esticky End (25/1), Church Mountain (33/1), Slowdownbarney (33/1), Cala Gracioneta (80/1)

The vote goes to NO MORE KISSES, who has left her turf form behind switched to this surface the last twice and the step up to this trip is unlikely to be an issue judged on her clear-cut breakthrough success over 10.7f here last month. A 9 lb rise is fair enough and she should prove too strong for Echinacea and top-weight Lady Kai.
