Forecasts

Havana Grey (5/4), Simmy's Copshop (11/4), Poignant (11/2), Choice Encounter (14/1), Snaffled (14/1), Neola (16/1), Green Power (16/1), Mocead Cappall (66/1)

Verdict

Trainer Richard Fahey has made a flying start with his youngster's this year and Simmy's Copshop can make a winning debut in this two-year-old maiden event. The yard have already had 5 juvenile winners in 2017 and can add a further on here with Havana Grey, the son of a mare who won six times over the minimum trip taken to finish second ahead of Neola who represents a yard who often do well with their two-year-old's.
  1. Simmy's Copshop
  2. Havana Grey
  3. Neola
