10/3

Latest win at Wolverhampton in April. 9/1, below form ninth of 17 in handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, firm) 21 days ago, not ideally placed. Three career wins on the all-weather and she should go close.

Forecasts

Twice As Likely (10/3), Irish Times (9/2), Breezyandbright (5/1), Porfin (11/2), Jack Ryan (9/1), Signorinadoro (10/1), San Juan (12/1), Tarseekh (14/1), Pina Collada (16/1), Jungle Boogaloo (20/1), Final Deal (25/1), Who Told Jo Jo (40/1), Skedaddled (40/1), Catapult (50/1)

TWICE AS LIKELY wasn't well placed at Chepstow last time and she can bounce back here. A three-time winner on the all-weather, she has to be taken seriously from a low draw. Breezyandbright is reasonably lightly raced and in form so he looks to be a big danger. Signorinadoro would be of interest if the market speaks in her favour.
