Forecasts

Cairde Go Deo (5/4), Perotan (5/2), Rumbles Of Thunder (4/1), Tranquil Lady (5/1), Grecian Slipper (8/1), Forbearance (12/1), Kiss You Later (16/1), Lady Of Inishfree (20/1), Female Soldier (33/1)

Aidan O'Brien's improving Churchill filly PEROTAN is fancied to take this step up in class in her stride and make it 3-3 after her comfortable Down Royal listed victory. Cairde Go Deo has the form to ensure the selection doesn't have things all her own way though with Rumbles of Thunder rating a solid place prospect and the pick of the remainder.
