Forecasts

Invigilate (13/8), Kick On Girl (11/4), Iconic Look (9/2), Ultra Chic (13/2), Chichen Itza (7/1), Bint Elmalek (8/1), Keeping Hoping (28/1), Basholo (40/1), Hot Mop (125/1)

KICK ON GIRL made a pleasing debut at Doncaster just over 3 weeks ago, despite looking green, and she should be able to improve enough to win an event such as this. Ultra Chic is an interesting newcomer, while twice-raced Invigilate possibly went off too hard at Chester last time, and remains capable of better.
