Forecasts

Angels Dawn (1/1), Feddans (18/5), California Breeze (11/2), Cute Cherry (9/1), Our Miss Power (12/1), Back On The Bridle (14/1), Joyful Kit (18/1), Betty Zane (25/1), Economic Reactor (40/1), Birthday Bayeb (80/1), Dukes Mill (200/1)

FEDDANS outran huge odds to finish second at Naas on debut and looks capable of better, so gets the nod ahead of Angels Dawn, who has the best form but is more exposed than the selection. Newcomer California Breeze makes plenty of appeal on pedigree, so is also worth noting for a top stable.
