Forecasts

Dubai Opulence (4/1), Glen Breeze (4/1), Apothic Red (5/1), She's On The Ball (11/2), Jampa Ling (8/1), Sand Art (10/1), Beau Army (10/1), Windsor Lily (11/1), Luminessa (11/1), Unfamiliar (16/1), Quinn's Charm (16/1), Countertop (22/1), The Love Machine (25/1), Magna Kotcha (40/1)

In a race where few arrive with compelling claims the fact GLEN BREEZE has a recent win to his name counts for plenty. Billy Lee's mount Dubai Opulence has fewer convictions than most of these and is next on the list ahead of Jampa Ling and Countertop.
