Forecasts

Danger Alert (11/10), Centre Court (16/5), Brave Emperor (10/3), Glorious Angel (12/1), Zephina (14/1)

None of these can be ruled out but the vote goes to DANGER ALERT who is weighted to end a run of three consecutive second placings. Centre Court is feared most on the back of her own good recent runner-up finish, although the returning Brave Emperor and course-winner Zephina warrant plenty of respect too.
