Forecasts

Jeans Maite (11/4), Atyaaf (7/2), Cazeva Princess (7/2), San Juan (6/1), Twelve Diamonds (6/1), Tomahawk Ridge (14/1), Jumira Bridge (18/1), Luckyangel (28/1)

JEANS MAITE has already won four times this year and she's been found an excellent opportunity to make it five here. A 6 lb rise looks fair for her comprehensive Thirsk success and it's difficult to oppose her. Atyaaf is a consistent sort and may provide the strongest opposition. Cazeva Princess has each-way claims with Buick taking the ride.
