Forecasts

Habit Rouge (10/3), Dawaaleeb (4/1), Spiorad (4/1), United Front (9/2), Toronado Queen (9/1), Artistic Rifles (10/1), Red Bond (11/1), Daafr (22/1)

Verdict

DAWAALEEB has an excellent record here and may be capable of notching another win. Spiorad has been knocking on the door here this winter and ought to figure again, while Daafr is another who arrives in good form.

  1. DAWAALEEB (USA)
  2. SPIORAD (IRE)
  3. DAAFR (IRE)
