Forecasts

Past Time (11/4), Radiyka (3/1), Witch Of The Wood (10/3), Rosslare Strand (7/2), Furnace Creek (7/1), New York Dreams (20/1), Moe Sedway (28/1), Gate Speed (33/1), Empress Of Bough (33/1), Tiny Bit (40/1), Songline (66/1), Mymomentintime (66/1), Let's Believe (100/1), Snow Lotus (150/1), Blackbearmountain (300/1)

While one or two of these probably possess greater long-term potential, PAST TIME looks the way to go on this occasion. She signed off her 2-y-o campaign by finishing second in a competitive, big-field nursery over this C&D and a reproduction of that would make her tough to beat. The form of the maiden in which Rosslare Strand was third at Fairyhouse last summer is strong in the context of this race and she is feared most ahead of Radiyka and Witch of The Wood.
