Forecasts

Bella Chica (5/4), Love Lies (13/2), Belle Of Belize (7/1), Madame Patrice (7/1), Alex The Great (15/2), Florence (9/1), Zodiac Princess (10/1), Wuhan (20/1), Samoa (22/1), Touch Of Fate (33/1), Ramsay (33/1), Ilha Da Varlette (50/1), Dalgety Bay (50/1), Hear The Trumpet (66/1)

Verdict

BELLA CHICA improved significantly last time and has obvious claims. Love Lies is most likely the chief opposition, while Florence can't be ruled out of it either.

  1. BELLA CHICA (SAF)
  2. LOVE LIES (SAF)
  3. FLORENCE (SAF)
