Forecasts

Valeriana (13/8), Escape To Vegas (3/1), Que Cosas (5/1), Storyland (11/2), Angel Bouquet (6/1), Law And Order (8/1), Paris Opera (12/1), Field Dancer (20/1), Clock Stopper (28/1), Lumiere (33/1), Microbe (50/1)

Verdict

VALERIANA appeals best of these by a narrow margin but it's an open race. Paris Opera is the most prudent second choice, while Angel Bouquet is another with place prospects too.

  1. VALERIANA (SAF)
  2. PARIS OPERA (SAF)
  3. ANGEL BOUQUET (SAF)
