Forecasts

Markievicz (3/1), Eloquent Arthur (7/2), Seven Worlds (5/1), The Peckhampouncer (9/1), Carla's Kodi Bear (10/1), Pretty Smart (11/1), De Puntitas (11/1), Stanhope (12/1), Heledd (12/1), Cuala Bula (22/1), Wayne R Walker (22/1), Hot Whispers (33/1), Breezy Zoff (40/1), Oneofararekind (40/1), Alqabeela (66/1)

MARKIEVICZ is a long-standing maiden but was third in better handicap than this at the Curragh a fortnight ago and a repeat of that form will ensure she goes very close. Seven Worlds and De Puntitas are a couple of live threats.
