Forecasts

Golconda Prince (7/4), Time To Blossom (4/1), Broadway Dreams (7/1), Archipeligo (17/2), Miningrocks (10/1), Beauden Barrett (12/1), Jan De Heem (14/1), Haymarket (16/1), Graceful Act (16/1)

GOLCONDA PRINCE has been running well so far this season and can break his maiden at the 11th attempt in this opening lady riders handicap. Ella McCain has made a good start to her riding career with a strike-rate of 27% (3/11) so far and the partnership can get the better of handicap debutant Time To Blossom who carries top weight here on her first start of the season. Ayr runner-up Beauden Barrett is taken to claim third following a decent effort at Ayr last time.
