Forecasts

Three Rocks (5/6), Passchendaele (9/2), Gimme's Lassie (11/2), Golden Pacific (7/1), European Summer (12/1), Summer Odyssey (16/1), Lady Majorca (18/1), Aunty Lizzy (20/1), Oriental Bouquet (25/1), Ancient Epic (25/1), Princess Deb's (40/1)

PASSCHENDAELE's recent runs have had a lot to like about them and she has a fair chance. Three Rocks can also play a leading role, while Aunty Lizzy may grab a bit more place money.
