Forecasts

Shesadabber (9/2), Burtonlodge Beauty (6/1), Captain Corcoran (13/2), Kraken Power (15/2), Birdie Bowers (8/1), Red Allure (17/2), Zig Zag Zyggy (10/1), Tanasoq (11/1), Basholo (14/1), Nodsasgoodasawink (14/1), Eruption (18/1), Sunset Glow (20/1), Stroxx (33/1)

This looks a good race for the grade, with BASHOLO just about the most persuasive option given she's unexposed over 5f. Shesadabber arrives in top form and her consistency is hard to knock, while Nodsasgoodasawink ran well from out of the weights at Ayr on Thursday and is back on her correct mark here.
