Forecasts

Kings Again (6/4), Genovefa (2/1), Make Believe (9/2), Iona Castle (9/1), Inspiration (10/1), Kentucky Lassie (14/1), Mystical Butterfly (20/1), Wise Counsel (22/1), Umzolozolo (28/1), Queen Amina (50/1)

MAKE BELIEVE wasn't in top form over C&D last time but looks the one to beat on the balance of her form. Kentucky Lassie is the most realistic next preference, while Umzolozolo might be tough to keep out of the minor places.
