Forecasts

Unequal Love (11/10), Billyjoh (11/4), Elusive Angel (10/3), Evenstar (17/2), Capital Guarantee (10/1), Haworth Star (25/1), Havana Pursuit (50/1), Minack (50/1), Enamay (250/1), Missmimi (400/1)

There should be more to come from recent Leicester scorer UNEQUAL LOVE, who is preferred to fellow previous winner Billyjoh. Elusive Angel still looked green at Catterick and should also be thereabouts if close to the form she showed when second on her AW debut in the spring.
