Forecasts

Approach The City (3/1), Hellavapace (4/1), Making Music (9/2), Cool Vixen (5/1), Mr Zee (10/1), Haseef (11/1), Dashing To You (11/1), Roman Tempest (18/1), Miss Houdini (28/1), Elementofsurprise (150/1)

MAKING MUSIC disappointed on her last 2 starts but she's on a good mark on the pick of her form so could be worth chancing in first-time headgear. Hellavapace has been going through a good spell since fitted with blinkers and rates the main threat ahead of Cool Vixen.
