Forecasts

Eglantine Du Seuil (5/2), Sexy Lot (3/1), Regarding Ruth (10/3), Bourbon Beauty (7/2), Molly Ollys Wishes (11/2), The Bay Birch (6/1), Yeavering Belle (6/1), Little River Bay (8/1), Bannixtown Glory (9/1), Irish Roe (10/1), Another Theatre (12/1), She'sasupermack (16/1), Our Dot's Baby (28/1)

This is tougher than the Newbury handicap REGARDING RUTH landed last month, but she did the job in good style and an 8 lb rise may not be enough to prevent her from following up. Sexy Lot has enjoyed a terrific campaign and is feared greatly on the back of another personal best at Haydock 12 days ago, while Little River Bay and Bourbon Beauty are others to consider.
