Forecasts

Lethal Power (11/8), Tarasila (7/2), Dream Focus (5/1), High Mounte (7/1), Shringara (7/1), Maunganui (8/1), National Wealth (14/1), Ashqar (14/1), Kanthaka (66/1), Five Gems (150/1), On The Boards (150/1)

Verdict

LETHAL POWER improved from maiden company to place at Killarney before a promising fourth of 13 beaten 1¾L at the Curragh last month and can continue his improvement in this contest. The Jim Bolger-trained Dream Focus looks a progressive type and can improve on his second at Killarney last month and can battle for a place with intriguing newcomers Tarasila, High Mounte and Shringara worth a market check.
