Forecasts

Andromeda (11/10), Sara Valentina (9/2), Camelot Alexander (15/2), Higher Leaves (17/2), Get (10/1), Realt Na Ri (10/1), Cheeky Wink (14/1), Elizabeth Jane (16/1), Whisper A Prayer (16/1), Gleaning (20/1), Masaiya (40/1), Question Of Class (150/1), Edella (250/1)

The return to 1m will help ANDROMEDA and given she already sets a pretty good standard, she rates the percentage call. Elizabeth Jane is bred to make up into a useful 3-y-o but she can still make her presence felt on debut, with Higher Leaves another to consider.
