Forecasts

Olivia Mary (11/4), Light Lily (9/2), Nibras Shadow (9/2), Red Evelyn (7/1), Clegane (8/1), Always Dreaming (9/1), Keep Right On (11/1), Maahi Ve (16/1), Charming Paradise (20/1), Born To Finish (33/1), Alicestar (66/1), Joe Proud (125/1)

NIBRAS SHADOW has been in good order recently and might have finished a bit closer had he not met trouble at Newcastle last time, so he gets the marginal vote from a handy draw in a tight contest. Olivia Mary, if in the same form as when landing a claimer last time, should be on the premises, and the grade-dropping Always Dreaming isn't without a chance.
