Forecasts

Barbara Villiers (13/8), Heather Lark (7/4), Calypso Blue (15/8), Ejtyah (7/2), Come With Me (8/1), Braganza (20/1)

This looks a trappy race but the vote goes to Godolphin's CALYPSO BLUE who shaped with promise when fourth on her recent racecourse bow. With the cheekpieces on now she may be good enough to repel Heather Lark, who looks a big danger after two decent runs of late. There may be better to come from Barbara Villiers, and the market should give us a hint as to what is expected from newcomer Braganza, a daughter of Nathaniel.
