9/1

Form: 962665

Forecasts

Slieve Binnian (10/11), Asfastaslightening (11/2), Fendi (9/1), Trident Star (11/1), Apprentice (12/1), Giselles Romance (12/1), Alfarida (14/1), Reigles (20/1), Lashes (25/1), Saoibh (25/1), Bedelia (50/1)

FENDI didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fifth at Gowran last time and with that form working out well she can bag her first success eased 1lb here. Alfarida is weighted to have a big say if getting back to her best, with Slieve Binnian another who needs factoring into an open handicap.
