Forecasts

Littlemissmillion (5/6), Bakwena (10/3), Accept Cookies (6/1), Famous Lady (8/1), Warning Sound (9/1), Pointer (10/1), Lady Sabrina (12/1), Boom Boom (14/1), Ceuta (20/1), Across The Pond (25/1), It's Her Way (40/1), Streisand (50/1)

POINTER is as good as ever judged on her latest effort and has principal claims. Lady Sabrina is likely to pounce if the selection fails to deliver, while Bakwena looks third best.
