Forecasts

Markaz Paname (8/11), Ecoutez (11/4), My Eyes Adore You (7/2), Admiraloftheblue (5/1), Padjoy (8/1), Keel Bay (10/1), Approach To Life (14/1), Jedi Power (14/1), Love Whisper (50/1), Victory Lantern (50/1), Pale Moonlight (66/1), Mally Batt (125/1), Starlight Rose (125/1), Run Silver Run (150/1)

The vote goes to ECOUTEZ, who made a positive start to her career when third at Navan and stepping up to 6f looks a good move. Admiraloftheblue is likely to leave his debut form well behind in time and Keel Bay is presumably well regarded given that his introduction was in a listed race. However, Ecoutez may have most to fear from likely-looking newcomers Markaz Paname and My Eyes Adore You.
