Forecasts

One For The Ladies (10/3), Fircombe Hall (9/2), Khulu (6/1), She's A Deva (8/1), Foreseeable Future (9/1), Donizetti (10/1), Cuppacoco (10/1), Oh So Hot (11/1), Oakenshield (12/1), Lucky Beggar (16/1), Rockley Point (20/1), Embla (50/1), Angel Eyes (50/1), Grandads Best Girl (80/1)

ONE FOR THE LADIES opened her account in decisive fashion over this C&D last month, leaving the impression that this 7 lb higher mark will be within reach. She is marginally preferred to Foreseeable Future, who has yet to add to his 2-y-o success back in 2017 but he has shaped as though his turn may be near the last twice. She's A Deva also enters calculations.
