Forecasts

Respiro Solitario (5/2), Mafting (16/5), Ghaiyya (9/2), Princess Rascal (5/1), Miss Alpilles (11/2), Kokinelli (11/2), Destinado (10/1), Scintillante (28/1)

None of these can be ruled out but Oliver Cole's improving PRINCESS RASCAL gets the vote on the back of her clear Windsor second on her recent handicap debut. C&D runner-up Kokinelli is next on the list with Respiro Solitario, Scintillante and Mafting all in the mix too.
