Forecasts

Over Count (5/4), Princess Of Fire (9/2), Cana (9/2), Run Florist Run (9/2), Close To My Heart (8/1), Sheza Rockstar (10/1), Burnt Paper Sky (12/1), Sao Paulo (12/1), Blue Gangsta (25/1), World Squared (25/1), Viva Le Bleu (28/1), Lateral's Flash (28/1)

CANA can make a splash again on her handicap debut. Sheza Rockstar could be the chief danger, while Princess Of Fire also seems unlikely to be far away.
