Forecasts

Three Laws (10/3), Independent Expert (7/2), Aristovic (9/2), Notwithstanding (6/1), Scarlet Angel (7/1), Cherub Rock (15/2), Starsong (9/1), Princess Azure (28/1)

The drop to 7f was definitely against THREE LAWS at Leopardstown last month and back up in trip, she retains plenty of potential as a handicapper. Notwithstanding is a shade more exposed but he lurks on a dangerous mark and is feared most, with Independent Expert also considered.
