Forecasts

Simply Beautiful (11/4), Loveisthehigherlaw (9/2), Kiss For A Jewel (9/2), Camphor (5/1), Warnaq (7/1), Solage (14/1), Winiata (14/1), Chablis (14/1), Snapraeceps (25/1), Quote (33/1), Terzetto (50/1), Invitation (50/1)

Verdict

Although set some stiff tasks SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL has acquitted herself with great credit in a winless 2019 campaign. This represents a class drop and she now looks to have found a chance to gain a very well deserved second career score. Unbeaten Loveisthehigherlaw is the dark horse and most feared rival ahead of Snapraeceps whose last effort was outstanding although she had never achieved comparable form before that.
  1. Simply Beautiful
  2. Loveisthehigherlaw
