Forecasts

Never Be Enough (3/1), Song Of The Sky (4/1), Darlyn (5/1), Another Theatre (13/2), Perfect Myth (8/1), Sweet Adare (9/1), Solstalla (9/1), Makety (10/1), Leave My Alone (40/1)

Verdict

SONG OF THE SKY has been running well over fences of late and she can make a winning return to hurdles by taking this mares only contest. Another Theatre was in good form for much of last season and she can take second spot ahead of Darlyn who can finish third on her return to action.
  1. Song Of The Sky
  2. Another Theatre
  3. Darlyn
