Forecasts

Furious (9/4), Di Matteo (5/2), Reticent Angel (6/1), Always A Drama (7/1), Shorter Skirt (9/1), Rose Berry (10/1), More Than Likely (14/1), Elizabeth Bennet (25/1)

ALWAYS A DRAMA can maintain her unbeaten record in handicaps by registering a victory in this competitive fillies handicap. The selection is returning from a break and she can get the better of Rose Berry who drops in grade having contested a Listed event last time out. Third place can go to Di Matteo who was a winner here last time out.
