Forecasts

Alesia's Love (6/4), My Lady Soul (4/1), What A Lucy (11/2), Wilkies (6/1), Green Bubbles (8/1), United We Stand (9/1), Happy Mo (14/1), Whistledown (20/1), Into Line (20/1), Signora Bomba (22/1), Queen Britanna (28/1)

ALESIA'S LOVE holds a definite advantage on form and is quite a confident selection. Wilkies could be the one to take advantage if the selection underperforms, while Green Bubbles is another with place prospects too.
