Forecasts

Angel Girl (9/4), Hypernova (5/2), Ma France (7/2), Snow Lotus (11/1), Ten Coins (14/1), Midnight Treasure (20/1), Gloria Rosa (22/1), Our Shining Light (22/1), Lifeinthefastlane (22/1), Kimbah (25/1), Forgetmenotblue (33/1), Danmars Rogue (33/1), Shining Crystal (40/1), Calibrachoa (50/1), Dingle Rock (66/1), Chancey Approach (125/1)

HYPERNOVA continues to frustrate supporters (placed 4 from 5 starts) but this represents a fine opening for Joseph O'Brien's colt to open his account at the sixth time of asking. Angel Girl showed plenty to work on when fourth on debut last month so she's expected to feature with improvement likely, along with Snow Lotus and Ten Coins.
