Forecasts

Lincoln Rockstar (2/1), Spring Chorus (4/1), Carlton (9/2), Ski Jump (7/1), Violeta (10/1), Escarpment (11/1), Weigh Anchor (16/1), Grifter (18/1)

SPRING CHORUS took her form up a notch for her new yard when scoring over C&D last month and with few miles still on the clock she can improve to defy a 3 lb rise in the weights. Fellow C&D winner Lincoln Rockstar could emerge as the main danger, with Escarpment and Grifter both in the mix too.
