Forecasts

Crossfirehurricane (11/8), Orchid Gardens (13/8), Lansing (13/2), Harbanaker (8/1), Absolute One Right (25/1), Dutch Admiral (33/1), Shabra's O B (33/1), Power And Pace (33/1), Plugged In (40/1), Hisnameis Mrdevitt (50/1), Valley Of Dreams (66/1), Stellify (100/1)

The Mick Halford-trained ORCHID GARDENS can get off the mark for connections on just her second start following a solid effort over C&D behind Abby Hatcher last month. The daughter of Muhaarar can get the better of Crossfirehurricane for trainer Joseph O'Brien who can be expected to improve on her debut win at Limerick when last seen in June. Harbanaker ran with credit at this track last month over 1m and may appreciate the drop in trip while the experienced pair, Shabra's O B and Absolute One Right could go well at big prices.
