Forecasts

Sacred Bridge (11/10), Agartha (5/2), Sablonne (8/1), Karkiyna (14/1), Lexi's Dream (14/1), Vivaia (16/1), Mary Pickersgill (16/1), Un Bacio Ancora (40/1), Arewecrystalclear (40/1), Elizabeth's Pride (80/1)

Only three arrive with previous experience and it may pay to take a chance on newcomer SACRED BRIDGE. She makes plenty of appeal on paper for a yard adept at readying a debutante and it would come as no surprise to see a good showing. Agartha sets the standard of those with form and should be thereabouts. Another newcomer Vivaia completes the shortlist.
