Forecasts

Divine Breath (15/8), Sunfall (11/4), Rating (9/2), Lady Flora (5/1), Mirroring (5/1), Zipster (7/1), Northfield Lake (8/1), Saviour (9/1), State Flag (9/1), Graecia (12/1), Lunar Streets (14/1), King Of Charm (33/1)

DIVINE BREATH gets out under a penalty before a 15 lb rise for last week's easy Chelmsford success kicks in and she'll be tough to beat if in a similar mood. Sunfall can have a line put through her Newmarket handicap debut run and looks second best ahead of Zipster.
