Forecasts

Royal Kitty (15/8), Flower Season (7/2), Reckless Love (9/2), Let's Not Linger (5/1), Maid In France (6/1), Hatta (11/1), Roy's Rocker (20/1), Kissing Booth (20/1)

ROYAL KITTY couldn't justify market support on her most recent run, but is taken to make the most of this opening. Hatta gets the nod among the others, while Reckless Love edges things for third.
