Forecasts

Trip To Maputo (9/4), Gimme's Lassie (7/2), Gocekwithlove (5/1), Happy Holly (11/2), Three Rocks (6/1), Paris Lass (11/1), Woman Of Power (12/1), Ellorix (14/1), Kyalami Girl (14/1), Mythical Dream (16/1), Bomber Girl (20/1), Porque Te Vas (25/1), Basingstoke (80/1), Polynomial (80/1)

ELLORIX has been running creditably of late and just about sets the standard. Paris Lass could be the biggest competition, while Gimme's Lassie is one to bear in mind too.
