Forecasts

Annie Lavinia (7/2), Rion Rubette (9/2), Hugo's Girl (5/1), Wish This (6/1), Midnight Horizon (7/1), Withoutfurtherado (15/2), Endless Dawn (8/1), Sea Fort (10/1), Highbury See See (12/1), Steel Magnolia (12/1), James The Second (20/1), Cooee Call (28/1), Petite Madame (28/1), Goddaughter (66/1)

ANNIE LAVINIA went down only narrowly at Down Royal recently and is weighted to get off the mark here. Steel Magnolia heads the list of dangers on the back of a very good Tipperary second with Rion Rubette, James The Second and Hugo's Girl also worthy of consideration in this very open handicap.
