Forecasts

Velvet Whisper (3/1), Sayidah New Bay (10/3), Sure And Stedfast (7/2), Tee Aitch Aye (11/2), Alnayef (6/1), Run Of Luck (10/1), Kitsune Power (12/1), Krissy (18/1), Junkyard Dog (20/1), Sophiesticate (33/1)

Unexposed Irish raider SAYIDAH NEW BAY looks to have plenty going for her on the back of a promising handicap debut third at Killarney last month. Fellow 3-y-o filly Velvet Whisper is feared most ahead of Tee Aitch Aye.
