Forecasts

Lisamaria (11/4), Bright Moment (5/1), Cleopatra's Needle (13/2), Maricruz (7/1), Five Zeros (15/2), Selective Power (10/1), Qasbaz (11/1), Court Of Appeal (12/1), Barretstown (16/1), Finke River (18/1), Nevada Brave (18/1), Dark Street (22/1), Kartayaz (22/1), Prince Of Abington (22/1), Clifftop (22/1), Shining Aitch (25/1), Gudrun Genberg (25/1), The Peckhampouncer (33/1), Csarina (40/1), Black Smoke (66/1)

LISAMARIA has a lowly mark to exploit so in the hope she sees this new trip out, she looks the way to go. Harry Rogers saddles a couple of interesting runners in Cleopatra's Needle and Clifftop and they are potential threats.
