Forecasts

Semantics (4/6), Starry Heavens (5/1), Ma Belle Artiste (13/2), Lan Mara (13/2), Eye Of Envy (8/1), Devore (12/1), Nyota (14/1), She's Local (33/1), Leopardess (50/1), Bellaphina (50/1), Alfarida (66/1), Sunset Glory (66/1), Doctor Grace (80/1)

SEMANTICS and Starry Heavens finished second and third respectively in a strong-looking maiden at Bellewstown 3 weeks ago and they can come to the form. The Ger Lyons-trained filly is taken to come out on top again, with Lan Mara another to take seriously.
