Forecasts

Elite Craft (85/40), Lady Dahlia (5/2), Royal Free Hotel (4/1), Magic Chegaga (8/1), Illusory (17/2), Merroir (14/1), Wichita Woman (22/1), Miss Daingerfield (25/1), Bringloid (33/1), Maid's Cap (33/1), Naughty Dandy (100/1)

Jonny Murtagh has his string in rude health and his ELITE CRAFT deserves to get her head in front after a few creditable placed efforts this term. The blinkers replace a visor and she should have no trouble with this step up in trip. Magic Chegaga needs to put a below-par effort on handicap debut behind her to feature, while Royal Free Hotel also makes appeal and should progress.
