Forecasts

Theflyingbee (5/2), Rockview Consort (11/4), Maxios Prime (4/1), Dame Rapide (13/2), Mexican Moonshine (13/2), Brianna Lily (15/2), Leitzel (20/1), Influential Lady (33/1)

The vote goes to ROCKVIEW CONSORT, who left the strong impression that her turn is near when a good third off 2 lb lower over this C&D last month. The 4-y-o Maxios Prime is greatly respected on these terms on the back of her third in a Cheltenham Grade 3 handicap. Dame Rapide and Theflyingbee are others to consider.
