Forecasts

Back Down Under (13/8), Kay's Flower (5/1), Abiding Star (11/2), Sierra De Gredos (7/1), Sturlasson (15/2), Verified (8/1), Oh So Bright (8/1), Crystal Luna (11/1), Saffredi (20/1), Desert Power (22/1), Fair Taxes (22/1), Glamorous Doll (28/1), Pass To Paris (33/1), Somptueuse (66/1), Lismacbryan (100/1), Nelliestar (100/1), Making A Move (125/1), Behomebyhalfpast (150/1)

BACK DOWN UNDER has had a few chances but her reappearance was good and she may be able to get off the mark here. Kay's Flower and Sierra de Gredos are newcomers who look likely types on paper, while Jessica Harrington's Oh So Bright could also play a prominent role if a lesser run last time can be forgiven.
