Amanda and Sarah should have chance of making the cut as surely there'll be a fair few withdrawals.
If we have 5 Brits in the qualies, I think that'll be the most in RG qualies for a long time. It'll be a first time for Mel and Katie. Anne's best record is rd2, hopefully she can go at least 1 step further this time
Last year the final qualies round on the Saturday was shown live on Eurosport, hopefully same things happens this year and there are some Brits. Boggo came so close last year, was 5-2 up in the 3rd set of his rd2 match and ended up losing it 7-5
Anne is our best chance. Last year she qualified for WTA Strasbourg beating Wozniack and Tian-Tian Sun on the clay. I've always believed she can play a bit on the surface so hopefully she can recapture her best form in time for the big one.

Anne's best surface is definately US hard courts, she's come close to qualifying for the US Open, won several 25Ks and done well in a few 50Ks over there. I'm told that clay is her 2nd best surface, she has made 25K finals in the past...as John says she had that great weekend in Strasbourg too...v disappointing rd1 loss in RG qualies to a player ranked in mid 200s last year which was quite a surprise.
Unless she comes into form over the next few weeks, I don't think she's got much of a chance unfortunately (but still a better chance than the other British girls entered) ,s he's had a few injuries this year and some issues with her game, match reports have suggested that she's been unusually erratic and she's also had problems with her serve
