Forecasts

Sierra Blanca (8/11), Sprewell (3/1), Walsingham (7/1), Water Nymph (7/1), Jupiter Rock (10/1), Queenie St Clair (16/1), Space Age (20/1), New Variant (22/1), Partisan Hero (25/1), Blanc De Noir (25/1), Eyeeye (33/1), Beechwood (40/1), Shrewsbury Road (66/1), Lucky Question (66/1), Cruiscin Lan (66/1), White Birch (80/1), Kaydees Magic (80/1), Do Little (80/1), Great Blasket (100/1), Fratas (125/1), Lionized (125/1), Navy Beach (125/1), Aurum Sky (250/1)

Aidan O'Brien has won this twice since 2018 and holds a very strong hand courtesy of SIERRA BLANCA and Water Nymph. The former's latest Group 3 second sets the bar pretty high for a maiden so he's preferred. Jessica Harrington's Sprewell made an encouraging start to his career when fourth at Gowran recently and may prove best of the remainder.
