Forecasts

Verbier (6/4), Joyful Act (5/2), Tranquil Rose (5/1), Roadway (8/1), Dubai Crystal (12/1), Lady Rascal (12/1), Alpina Express (28/1), Midsummer Dance (50/1), Bridle Beauty (300/1), Analytics (300/1)

JOYFUL ACT and Tranquil Rose both make plenty of appeal on paper for a yard well capable of readying a newcomer, with the narrow vote going to the former before market clues. Roadway shaped better than the distance beaten suggests on her most recent start and is the pick of those with experience.
