Forecasts

Calm Waters (5/2), Diamondsinthesand (7/2), Fitz Perfectly (4/1), Thunderous Love (5/1), Mucha Muchacha (7/1), Mayz (9/1), My Clementine (10/1), Cherry Hill (22/1)

CALM WATERS has already scored twice this season's and Rod Millmna's filly looks the most solid option on the back of a creditable effort at Sandown last time. Thunderous Love arrives after a pair of below-par efforts but should get conditions to suit, with Diamondsinthesand taken to complete the placings.
