Forecasts

Spice Girl (13/8), Arian (3/1), Kaloci (7/2), Samarayia (9/2), Silk Run (14/1)

Most of the field has some sort of chance here. Spice Girl sets the standard and would be an obvious choice, but her winning form has been on significantly better ground than this, so it might be worth taking her on with SAMARAYIA. Henry Oliver's mare handles cut well, receives weight from Spice Girl and she can probably improve on her promising hurdles debut. Arian is another potential improver, while Kaloci is a very interesting newcomer who you wouldn't want to rule out.
