Forecasts

Hasna (1/1), Star Kissed (7/4), Lady Doris (3/1), Mo Ghille Mar (5/1), Belhaven (6/1), Solar Breeze (8/1), Ameerat Jumaira (14/1), Lunar Bird (22/1)

Low-mileage 3-y-o HASNA shaped like this step up in trip would suit when narrowly behind re-opposing Lady Doris at Down Royal 24 days ago and, meeting that rival on 2 lb better terms, she could be the answer here. The latter was strong at the finish herself then and needs factoring in also. Ameerat Jumaira and Star Kissed are others to consider.
