Forecasts

Empress Game (9/4), Green Fame (3/1), Flying Puma (10/3), White Hills (7/2), Potato Salad (5/1), Empressofnormandy (10/1), Best Intentions (12/1), Rugger Lover (22/1), Ice Cap (33/1), Gothic Princess (40/1), Chattanooga Lady (40/1)

WHITE HILLS has strong claims in this maiden. Empress Game could emerge as the chief threat, while Flying Puma is in the running for a share of the minor money.
