Forecasts

Puella Law (10/3), Rogue State (7/2), Just Rita (7/2), Asteverdi (4/1), Zariela (7/1), Tokyo Dreamer (12/1), Arisaig (14/1), Mamora Bay (14/1), Come On You Spurs (20/1), Chartwell's Lady (40/1)

ZARIELA showed much improved form upped to this trip on nursery debut when second at Yarmouth and sets the standard back in a maiden. Puella Law showed plenty of ability in the end having been very green when second at Beverley on debut so rates the main threat ahead of penalised winner Asteverdi.
