Forecasts

Milajess (11/4), Bellbird (10/3), Roaring Home (5/1), Lady Babs (6/1), Joto (13/2), She's A Rocca (7/1), Holly Bird (10/1), Mullins Cross (12/1), Lunar Rocks (80/1)

After winning at Market Rasen last month, LADY BABS produced a career best when following up at this C&D 20 days ago and she is taken to score again in her current form. Milajess has been finding her feet again from her reduced mark and could be the main danger, ahead of Bellbird.
