Forecasts

Galen (4/7), El Regalo (9/2), Lucky Melody (5/1), Next Trick (8/1), Lucky Out (16/1), Gandolfo (25/1), Sibari (28/1), Judge Me Not (40/1), Tango Five (50/1), Reclaim (50/1), Seurat (100/1), Cayo Pirata (150/1), Purrrfect Timing (200/1)

This looks like a good opportunity for GALEN, who chased home none other than City of Troy on his sole 2-y-o start in a maiden here and he looked in need of the run when again finding just one too good at this course last month. Lucky Melody shaped well on her introduction at Leopardstown and she is second choice ahead of Next Trick and Lucky Out.
