Forecasts

Persist (10/3), Sassy Rascal (10/3), Dubai Jewel (5/1), Clitheroe (6/1), Kindness (11/1), Hamseh (12/1), Becoming (14/1), Pluperfect (14/1), Penguin Island (18/1), A La Francaise (28/1), Glittering Choice (33/1), Coulapina (100/1)

CLITHEROE is bred to be quick and has a £590,000 price tag to uphold, so hopes are high that she can make an immediate impact. Dubai Jewel is penalised for her Windsor win but still commands respect, with Sassy Rascal also of interest back down in class.
