Forecasts

Paris Peacock (2/1), Bienvenue (7/2), Lecale's Destiny (7/1), Free To Party (15/2), Footsteps In Qatar (8/1), Rick Dalton (10/1), Dabana (10/1), Self Belief (12/1), Lady Danbury (18/1), Tango Flare (18/1), Coreman (25/1), Chocolat Blu (33/1), Casino Queen (50/1), El Campeador (50/1), Empress Of Bough (50/1), Red Trail (80/1), Caramel Lizard (80/1), Srowland Jack (125/1), Clever Capall (150/1), Ceili House (150/1), Holding Aces (150/1), Ribaree (200/1), Runhoney (400/1)

PARIS PEACOCK holds the edge on form and can gain a deserved first success after reaching a place on all her five starts to date. Bienvenue lacks a recent run but is still feared on the back of her promising Listowel second while Lecale's Destiny and Free To Party need factoring in too in an open maiden.
