Forecasts

Catch Your Breath (6/4), Beau Kala (7/2), Lady Luck (9/2), Lady Writer (11/2), Amazing Colours (6/1), Chere For Me (13/2), Strange Magic (12/1), Duellona (18/1), United Express (40/1)

CATCH YOUR BREATH looked an improved animal last time out and sets a good standard for the others to aim at. Lady Writer can get the better of the remainder for second, while Lady Luck is perhaps the most interesting other runner in the line up.
