Forecasts

Lexington Belle (11/4), On Borrowed Time (9/2), Belle Storm (8/1), Oceanic Wonder (8/1), Koji (8/1), Louella (17/2), Fly Pass (10/1), Amayretto (10/1), Kaaress (12/1)

OCEANIC WONDER was pegged back by On Borrowed Time at Beverley last time but the former went off harder than ideal and is on better terms with her old rival, so she's taken to reverse the form in a race that the pair may dominate. Kaaress arrives on the back of an improved showing, so she's also respected.
