Maia out of Nottingham, Armani moves into main draw.
6 direct entries, plus 4 wildcards and any qualifiers

Expecting Isabelle Lacy, Ella McDonald, Heather Watson and Hannah Klugman as wildcards

 

I could be completely wrong but: 

I don't think Hannah Klugman will get a wildcard - or want to play

I think two weeks of competitions, singles and doubles, is enough, needs a break and she'll hold off before her first adult event - especially if she's still intending to play Aldershot

Frankly, I wouldn't give a wildcard to Ella either and I don't think the LTA will. Qualis seems more appropriate.

Isa Lacy seems a certainty. And Heather if she wants one.

I always wonder if Freya Christie will suddenly turn up - she had before at Nottingham (her home event) when not expected

However, that does leave me a bit short  

Might just be Jasmine Conway, or someone close to qualifying as of right.

I wonder if Given & Ellie will get a doubles card? 

As said above, Danielle, Emma W and Isabelle all have WCs to use over the next 3 weeks. I expect at least 1, and maybe all 3 given the lack of alternatives, to use theirs next week. I don't expect Hannah to use hers until the 3rd week, if it all.

Heather will not have a WC as she was in a W60 main draw and cannot withdraw to accept a main draw WC in another tournament unless it is of a higher prize money category. Not sure if the same applies to Freya, who was a late withdrawal from a W100 qualifying, as the rules appear contradictory whether a player can withdraw from qualifying to accept a main draw WC in a lower prize money category.

Charlie Broom is into the doubles in Oeiras next week, as is Luke. and will presumably be with Billy in singles . Charlie playing with Purav Raja

Good point - as always, Lambda

And Madadman posted the advance doubles lists above.

Which has Dani and Emma playing together.

Which therefore seems very likely that they'll use their UK Pro wildcards here.

Which would make Dani, Emma, Isabelle and Freya.....

Jasmine and Isabelle missing from the qualifying draw .....

Dani and Emma are in qualifying.

 Ok - so we're back to Plan A prediciton  

Isa, Heather (who seemingly can't), Freya and Jasmine 

It looks as if Fran has made it into the main draw in Ecuador as there were a few 'available slots'

and the no 1 ssed in Qualies was below her on the acceptance list
