Forecasts

Don't Let Go (5/4), Field Exhibition (11/4), Misskymdee (5/1), Aimee Kate (13/2), Peggy's Acre (7/1), Rain In Spain (8/1), Superefficient (20/1), Shramore Lady (20/1), Presenting Court (25/1), Other Voices (33/1), Caoimhe Diva (40/1), Meadow Blaze (66/1)

Verdict

The only pace in the race may come from Shramore Lady, who looks to be the one to lead from Misskymdee, Peggy's Ace and Rain In Spain. Difficult maiden that could throw up a shock, but it may pay to be with the likes of Rain In Spain, Field Exhibition and the selection, DON'T LET GO.
  1. Don't Let Go
  2. Field Exhibition
  3. Rain In Spain
