Ostrava Du Berlais (1/4), Miss Fedora (13/2), Firefly Lane (9/1), My Mate Polly (12/1), Rock On Rita (20/1), Lady Ironside (100/1)

It's hard to get away from OSTRAVA DU BERLAIS, who had plenty in hand when scoring at Ludlow last week and remains open to improvement. Firefly Lane may be the one to chase her home.
