Forecasts

Machnamh (7/4), Beauty Bella (11/4), Dagoda (9/2), Perfect Poise (13/2), Coco Crush (13/2), Swan Band (14/1), Medici Pass (28/1), Shesatrolleydollie (100/1), Vivezza (100/1), Harriet Eagle (125/1), Mayo Dawn (200/1)

Verdict

COCO CRUSH has an eye-catching pedigree and represents a top yard, so she's capable of making a successful start. Machnamh is the clear pick of those with form and should be able to take advantage if the selection doesn't come up to expectations.
