11/1

Forecasts

Carlton Gardens (15/8), Grizabella (4/1), Golden Ticket (9/2), Shaky Operator (5/1), Brown Eagle (15/2), Sovereignty (11/1), Arktikos (28/1), Lightly Spiced (66/1)

CARLTON GARDENS showed more than on debut when not beaten far in a Navan maiden 39 days ago and, less exposed than most, he could be worth siding with to capitalise on this marked drop in grade. Shaky Operator and Grizabella may emerge next best.
