Forecasts

Raven's Raft (11/8), Rockies Spirit (3/1), Just For Fun (9/1), Medici Oro (9/1), Super Major (16/1), Havana Heart (16/1), Foxy Lady (20/1), Fake News (22/1), Kentucky Blueblood (25/1), Situation (28/1), Makofitwhatyouwill (33/1), Plansina (80/1)

This looks the slightly weaker of the two divisions and any talented newcomer would have a say. The most likely on paper seem to be Fake News, Foxy Lady and Havana Heart, but on the form we have to go on, RAVEN'S RAFT looks the most probable winner. She had fellow debutant Just For Fun well behind when third of 12 at Nottingham and any improvement on that would give her every chance. Rockies Spirit shaped well on debut, too, and can figure, along with Medici Oro.
