Forecasts

Fair And Square (11/10), My Joker (7/2), Miss Belladonna (9/2), Primo (17/2), Arkid (12/1), Next Second (25/1), Hotter In Time (33/1), Pearl Of Kuwait (50/1)

Successful at Chelmsford in May, MISS BELLADONNA has run well to fill the runner-up spot both starts since, latterly in a stronger contest over C&D 39 days ago. She earns the vote to continue the good work, with Fair And Square and My Joker feared most.
