Forecasts

Impulsion (11/4), Wingreen (4/1), Orchid Star (5/1), Just Be Friendly (6/1), Accommodate (10/1), Flarepath (12/1), Canton Queen (16/1), Inclyne (22/1), Edifice (28/1), Star Of War (33/1), Heartbreak Hotel (33/1), Nyanga (50/1), Sweet Poem (50/1), Image Of The Moon (100/1), Shescominghome (100/1), Song of The Isles (200/1)

Lots of unknowns here, with interesting newcomers such as Edifice, Flarepath, Heartbreak Hotel, Orchid Star, Sweet Poem and Inclyne all from stables who can produce debut winners, so the market should be a good guide. Of those, perhaps Inclyne and Orchid Star look the more interesting for today. However, experience may be the key here and Impulsion has plenty of that, with her pattern race appearances. She sets the standard, but may be worth taking on with WINGREEN, who made a decent step up on her debut last time and could break her duck. Accommodate is respected.
