Forecasts

Wild Angel (2/1), Saqqara Sands (4/1), Season Of Light (5/1), Glamorous Marlene (13/2), Brightandbeautiful (9/1), Digub (10/1), Texas Starlight (11/1), Kebili (25/1), Camzara (25/1), Zaraquelle (40/1), Queen Himiko (66/1), Sansanetti (125/1)

This seems likely to prove an informative maiden given the yards and pedigrees on show. WILD ANGEL was undone by a poor draw that compounded her inexperience on her recent debut at Kempton and looks sure to improve plenty on that initial outing, so she earns the vote. Saqqara Sands made a promising start to her career at Wolverhampton last month and should make considerable progress, too, with Glamorous Marlene and Texas Starlight making most appeal of the newcomers before market clues.
