Forecasts

Koditime (7/2), Central City (9/2), Dahik (5/1), Darkanna (6/1), June Dog (13/2), Levante Player (11/1), Jellmood (12/1), Dontgiveuponbob (14/1), Shay C (25/1), Funkadelic (50/1), Angel Force (50/1), Lord Of The Glen (50/1), The Golden Cue (50/1)

Verdict

One of two fillies in this contest DARKANNA can make a winning debut here for trainer Richard Fahey. The selection is out of a dam who showed plenty of speed as a juvenile and her sire does well with his two-year-old's. June Dog was purchased by current connections at the breeze up sales earlier this month and can claim second for a yard who do well with their youngster's with Koditime taken to finish third for a yard who have made a good start with their youngster's in 2017.
  1. Darkanna
  2. June Dog
  3. Koditime
