Forecasts

Si Se Puede (2/5), Lady Bee Great (5/1), Fillusin (6/1), Ardera Gun (16/1), Just For Luck (20/1), Doyen Lady (28/1), Patrol Leader (50/1), Houdini Mansion (66/1)

SI SE PUEDE and Fillusin are well-bred mares from top yards and they're firmly expected to dominate this, with the first-name, a half-sister to the classy El Fabiolo appearing as the likeliest to prevail. Lady Bee Great makes most appeal of the others.
