Forecasts

Laurens (1/1), Hermosa (7/2), I Can Fly (6/1), Iridessa (10/1), Just Wonderful (12/1), Skitter Scatter (14/1), Happen (33/1)

Verdict

LAURENS is as consistent as they come and she can land back-to-back renewals of this race provided she's at her best. The danger to the selection is Hermosa who has been given a break since disappointing at Goodwood last time; it's likely this sort of trip will bring out the best in the filly at some point. Iridessa is a live each-way player if she can find her Pretty Polly form.
