Freedom Falls (2/1), Lord Massusus (9/4), Winemaker (6/1), Net A Porter Queen (13/2), Nation Of Stars (7/1), Charming Lady (18/1), Tooprofitable (18/1), L'immortale (50/1)

FREEDOM FALLS continued her improvement when fourth in a valuable sales race here a fortnight ago, faring best of the home challengers, and she looks ready to get off the mark at the fourth attempt. Lord Massusus is feared most after making a successful nursery debut on Tuesday, ahead of the shock debut winner Winemaker.
