Forecasts

Happy Diva (11/10), Shaama Grise (9/4), Copper Kay (7/2), Midnight Target (12/1)

A very trappy contest with three runners not separated by much in terms of what they have shown so far and another who is a potential improver in Midnight Target. The suggestion, however, is HAPPY DIVA, whose latest run has worked out well. Copper Kay and Shaama Grise are both officially rated higher than Kerry Lee's charge going into this, so if either proved good enough it would be no major shock.
