Forecasts

Amber Kite (5/2), Himalayan Beauty (4/1), Dress Kode (11/2), Winter Oasis (6/1), Faraah (13/2), Finest (15/2), Omakase (16/1), Mirage More (20/1), Tullypole Annie (40/1), Get Noticed (50/1), Clara's Approach (100/1), Picpoul (100/1), Cornice (200/1)

Finest hails from a top yard and should be able to get on the board soon but she has underwhelmed in three starts so far. The drop in trip may aid her but preference is for AMBER KITE. She was third over C&D on debut 18 days ago and won't be far away with normal improvement from that effort. Winter Oasis can build on her debut at Navan (fourth) while newcomers Himalayan Beauty and Omakase command further inspection.
