Forecasts

Kodiac Prince (9/4), Barnhill Rose (4/1), No Patience (5/1), Old Peculier (5/1), Pink Socks (8/1), Princess Rajj (8/1), Singe Anglais (9/1), Cool Vixen (14/1), Atlas (16/1), Mass Gathering (16/1), Estella Bella (20/1), Above It All (20/1), Treble Cone (40/1), Citrus Grove (80/1), Golden Forest (80/1)

Quite a few to consider, with KODIAC PRINCE getting the vote after another good run at Killarney. Estella Bella catches the eye starting out in handicaps for a new yard, while Barnhill Rose struck here last time and could be in the mix again.
