Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Connor Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 64

Forecasts

All Things Bright (7/2), Kats Bob (7/2), True Mason (4/1), Jill Rose (5/1), Jackhammer (11/2), First Greyed (6/1), Hajjam (15/2), One Hart (9/1), Baileys Afterparty (14/1)

ALL THINGS BRIGHT failed to win in Ireland but she was only just denied at Killarney on her penultimate start and is on a good mark on that effort ahead of her British/yard debut. Fellow 3-y-o Kats Bob responded well to this headgear when a narrow winner over C&D recently and is another to consider, while Jill Rose is worth another go at this trip given how she shaped at Catterick.
