Forecasts

She's A Machine (11/4), Poursomesugaronme (9/2), Skytrix (5/1), Jet Lavish (7/1), Way To Burn (17/2), Chelsea Flower (10/1), Fort J'adore (10/1), Beautiful Rania (11/1), Grey Fantacy (11/1), Miss Paget (12/1), Jazz Diva (14/1), Prom Queen (20/1), Mauritania (25/1)

SKYTRIX improved greatly on her latest start after a below-par effort the time before and is arguably the one they have to beat. Poursomesugaronme earns the vote for second, while Chelsea Flower is another to take into acount.
