Forecasts

Kitteridge (11/8), Dazzling Jewel (2/1), Sea Ice (9/4), Reyaadah Star (7/1), Golden Echo (14/1), Angelica K (20/1), Hail The Flag (28/1), Lucykeys (40/1), Storm Spirit (66/1), Ancora (200/1)

SEA ICE sets the standard and should have more to offer up in trip, so is preferred to Dazzling Jewel, who was too green to ever justify market confidence at Haydock on debut in September but showed enough to suggest she'll be a different proposition this time. Kitteridge is another to consider after her promising debut second at Chelmsford.
