Forecasts

Imperial Allure (5/2), Myladyrose (10/3), Esthers Marvel (9/2), Castle Canny (7/1), October Revolution (8/1), Nicole's Milan (8/1), Ballela Storm (17/2), Getaway Pippa (11/1), Mystic Embarr (12/1), Halcyon Dreams (16/1), Short Story Long (20/1), Oldcastle (20/1), Scarlet Rebel (22/1), Famous Day (33/1)

BALLELA STORM may have a bigger effort in her now handicapping stepped up in trip and is chanced. Myladyrose arrives on the back of a good run at Navan and is an obvious contender, while Esthers Marvel could also go well in first-time cheekpieces.
