Prediction Centre 

The EquiRatings Prediction Centre gives Caroline Pamucku a 50% overall win chance at Maryland. But don't count out Jennie Brannigan and Connery – the 2023 winners are back after having the fastest cross-country time of day. Hard ground is forecast this weekend, so a quick cross country round will be key — minimising time penalties could really shake up the leaderboard.
