Forecasts

Orion's Belt (15/8), Snow Light (11/4), Dancing Flower (4/1), Darkwing (6/1), New Vega (9/1), Fan Me (10/1), Ice Sovereigns (11/1), Frustration (25/1), Just Call Me Angel (25/1), Romantic Twilight (125/1)

SNOW LIGHT hails from a stable that sent out subsequent 1000 Guineas winner Desert Flower in this maiden 12 months earlier and it looks significant she’s seemingly the choice of William Buick. She’s the pick before market clues, though Darkwing, Dancing Flower and Fan Me are a trio of other interesting newcomers to keep a close eye on in the betting. Orion’s Belt showed lots of ability on her debut at Salisbury last month and can put that experience to good use.
