Forecasts

Amadeus (4/6), Birdette (3/1), Poetic Steps (11/1), Pretty Moi (11/1), Lever Du Soleil (14/1)

Both of the Mark Johnston fillies have disappointed of late and step up in trip Poetic Steps has yet to beat a rival this year while Birdette didn’t look as though she needed this trip on the evidence of her last run. AMADEUS certainly looked the more finished article last time out but has to cope with a 10lb higher mark and a different surface although front-running tactics could well prove to be the order of the day again. Both Pretty Moi and Lever Du Soleil go handicapping for the first time and that should bring some improvement about in both with the latter the one likely to show the most progress although he does have a lengthy absence to cope with.
