Forecasts

Keepingthepeace (3/1), Rock You (7/2), Bella Rosa (9/2), Bitter Wind (9/2), Fantasy Flower (15/2), Kapama (15/2), Machali (8/1), Royal Lily (10/1), League Of Her Own (10/1), Tulip Way (14/1), Decadent Lady (20/1), Countess Trenton (33/1), Paschals Samore (33/1), Seneca Falls (40/1)

Verdict

ROCK YOU has been hard to fault in recent starts and has fair claims. Tulip Way is likely to be waiting in the wings if the selection fails to deliver, while Royal Lily can win the battle for minor honours.

  1. ROCK YOU (SAF)
  2. TULIP WAY (SAF)
  3. ROYAL LILY (SAF)
