Forecasts

Clochette (8/13), Aunt Violet (3/1), Quantum Light (13/2), Sweet Harmony (11/1), Goodwood Vision (22/1), Giddy Aunt (28/1), Kanawha (33/1), Starmas (50/1), Ellexis (66/1), Lake Eloise (80/1), Connie C (80/1)

CLOCHETTE was probably unlucky not to win considering she met trouble as the winner was pressing on at Newbury on debut 3 weeks ago and can make amends. Aunt Violet shaped well when ½-length behind the selection that day and rates the main threat, with Quantum Light making the most appeal of the newcomers.
