Forecasts

Deputy Jones (11/4), Marilyn Monroe (7/2), Bellevarde Express (11/2), Spirit Of Rome (13/2), Doyannie (15/2), Shoot To Fame (15/2), Poet's Reflection (9/1), Lady Sally (10/1), Miss Gold Den (14/1), Dynamic Kate (50/1), Keepscalling (50/1), Mosambo (66/1), Little Peachey (80/1), Tranquil Dawn (150/1)

In the hope that the addition of cheekpieces helps eke out a little more, DEPUTY JONES gets the nod in what looks a wide-open contest. Her latest effort (first run following a wind op) represented an incremental step in the right direction and she's now 2 lb lower. Marilyn Monroe has improved since going down the handicap route and is second choice ahead of Spirit of Rome and Shoot To Fame.
