Forecasts

Wedgewood (5/2), Zebadaay (7/2), Asian Queen (5/1), Turbo Tiger (11/2), Miss Marianne (11/2), Goose Rock (9/1), Northern Chancer (12/1), Star Adorned (16/1), Pink Stripes (20/1), Huckleberry (66/1)

WEDGEWOOD returned much improved from a five-month absence when scoring over C&D and a 3 lb rise in the weights doesn't look sufficient to prevent her from following up. Miss Marianne chased home Tony Carroll's filly that day and can again feature, with the handily-weighted Goose Rock also making some appeal. Zebadaay is one to keep an eye on in the betting.
