Forecasts

Bonnie Lad (5/2), Iesha (7/2), Diamonds At Dusk (9/2), Alcazan (11/2), Puffin Island (7/1), Ronan Accuser (12/1), Love Baileys (14/1)

Preference is for ALCAZAN, who opened her account at Lingfield last month and could have more to offer yet. Iesha and Bonnie Lad look the likeliest dangers.
