Forecasts

Kitaro Kich (4/5), Angelica K (15/2), Born A Rebel (10/1), Mr Fustic (12/1), Taskheer (12/1), Waleyfa (16/1), Miss Sunset Strip (16/1), Outrace (18/1), River Alwen (22/1), Love Your Work (25/1), Tasmanian Legend (25/1), Beautiful Dawn (50/1)

Stall 11 isn't ideal, but KITARO KICH is in the form of his life at present and is difficult to oppose under a 5 lb penalty having run out a most decisive winner at Lingfield earlier in the week. Waleyfa is still lightly raced for her current yard and goes well fresh, so must enter calculations, along with Angelica K, who remains unexposed at this trip.
