Career best when winning 14-runner handicap at this C&D (14/1) 12 days ago, well positioned. A rise makes life tougher but he should give another good account.

Alice Milligan^t⁴²

13/2

Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. 13/2, respectable fourth of 14 in handicap at this course (6f) 42 days ago. Return to this trip should suit, so worth chancing off a lenient mark.

Forecasts

Is That Love (5/2), Gormanston (3/1), Alice Milligan (13/2), Gatsby Cap (10/1), Fascinating Spirit (10/1), Khairy (11/1), Amazing One (16/1), Praying Mantis (16/1), Kinch (20/1), My Friend Fred (20/1), Vento Del Drago (20/1), Fool Proof (25/1), Loaded (33/1), Iseebreeze (40/1), Dolce Sicily (50/1), Shatharaat (66/1), Rockin Jack (66/1)

ALICE MILLIGAN looks well treated on the pick of her form and shaped as if still in good order when a staying-on fourth at this course 42 days ago. Back up to an ideal distance with a useful draw, a chance is taken on her in an open race, with Is That Love and Gatsby Cap regarded as the main threats.
