Forecasts

Blakefell (5/4), Positive Thoughts (11/4), Eagle Bay (11/4), Henriette Ronner (4/1), Silky Lass (9/1), Irish Incentive (12/1), Top Lad (22/1), Clocker (33/1), India Gold (40/1), Twilight Baby (80/1), Duchess T (200/1)

There was promise from EAGLE BAY on debut and he's taken to improve past Blakefell and Positive Thoughts. Henriette Ronner could leave her debut form behind for William Haggas, while Karl Burke newcomer Silky Lass would very much enter the reckoning if the betting speaks for her.
