Forecasts

Mutasarref (5/2), Agartha (5/2), Ocean Jewel (16/5), Carrytheone (4/1), Power Under Me (11/2), Coachello (12/1), Spring Feeling (16/1), Real Appeal (20/1)

OCEAN JEWEL was having only the fourth start of her career when an excellent third in a 6f Naas Group 3 on her reappearance and is taken to build on that and return to winnings ways now tackling 7f for the first time. Ger Lyons pair Mutasarref, the mount of Colin Keane, and Power Under Me may give her most to do.
