Forecasts

Come On Girl (18/5), Azets (5/1), Three C's (5/1), Desert Land (6/1), Chiarodiluna (7/1), Daring Guest (10/1), Light Lily (10/1), Performance Poet (11/1), Valentine Blues (14/1), Jack Ryan (18/1), Upstage (100/1)

CHIARODILUNA can deservedly get her head in front after two good seconds in similar AW handicaps. Desert Land and Daring Guest are a couple of others to note.
