125/1

Forecasts

Soul Search (2/5), Simply A Breeze (9/2), Soineanta (7/1), Kassaba (8/1), Ya Beauty (11/1), Kristall Eye (18/1), Approachable (22/1), Florence Thompson (33/1), Miombo (100/1), Half Of Seven (100/1), Unconscious Mind (125/1), Swift Sonnet (200/1), Rudi's Princess (200/1), Pocket Edition (200/1)

It's hard to ignore the clear and obvious chances of the Ger Lyons-trained SOUL SEARCH in the finale. The daughter of Zoffany has been running well in defeat in Listed and Group races including when last seen in the Irish 1,000 Guineas at the Curragh earlier this month. The filly should get off the mark for connections at the seventh time of asking, getting the better of Simply A Breeze for trainer John Feane and the Dermot Weld-trained Kassaba in the colours of the Aga Khan. Soineanta and Ya Beauty can go well for yards in form.
