Forecasts

Wings Of A Dove (6/5), Asadjumeirah (7/4), Night On Earth (4/1), Secret Handsheikh (11/1), King'slove (20/1), Nuts In May (150/1), Musical Goddess (200/1)

WINGS OF A DOVE has been plying her trade at a much higher level for most of the summer and she should have too much in hand over her rivals here. Night On Earth also drops in grade after running in the Molecomb (just behind Wings Of A Dove) last time and shouldn't be far away. Secret Handsheikh is best of the rest.
