Forecasts

Lucky Ava (13/8), Swooper (7/2), Split Elevens (5/1), Harswell Prince (6/1), Hotalena (15/2), Marta Boy (11/1), Pablo Del Pueblo (14/1)

This looks a fine opportinity for HOTALENA to resume winning ways having been unsuited by the step up in trip on her hat-trick bid here last month. With the experienced Shane Kelly taking over in the saddle, she looks set to go close. Lucky Ava is likely to be popular after a career-best effort at Windsor 9 days ago but may have to settle for silver again, ahead of Swooper.
