Forecasts

Telmesomethinggirl (3/1), Royal Kahala (10/3), Dysart Diamond (7/2), Heaven Help Us (4/1), Gauloise (4/1), Western Victory (11/2), The Getaway Star (12/1), No Memory (22/1), Lady Lingo (200/1)

Verdict

A few in with a shout but if HEAVEN HELP US is in anywhere near the same form as for her demolition job in the Coral Cup at the Cheltenham Festival then she should take plenty of stopping on reappearance. Another Cheltenham-scorer Telmesomethinggirl is conceding 10 lb to the selection but she's feared most provided she's ready to roll on return, ahead of Gauloise and Western Victory.
