Forecasts
Front Line Fury (6/4), Lucky Hero (6/4), Ellusive Butterfly (9/2), Sporting Light (14/1), Isambard Kingdom (22/1), Twilight Dawn (66/1)
Those with experience don't set the bar that high so a chance is taken on Karl Burke newcomer ELLUSIVE BUTTERFLY, with confidence in her chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Lucky Hero should be sharper with his recent Chester debut behind him and can improve past Front Line Fury and provide the main threat.
