Forecasts

Indigo Five (7/2), Glen Princess (5/1), Serious Notions (6/1), Four Blondes (7/1), Karlsberg (10/1), Alabama Calling (11/1), Vera's Secret (12/1), Back Down Under (12/1), Dagoda (16/1), Whisper A Prayer (18/1), Darkdeserthighway (20/1), Breathe Again (20/1), Simply Sideways (28/1)

Verdict

This looks wide open. INDIGO FIVE got right back on the up when landing a big-field handicap here last time so is fancied to defy a 7 lb weights rise. Breathe Again heads the list of dangers on the back of her very good Limerick third, although a solid case can also be made for Glen Princess, Back Down Under and Darkdeserthighway.

  1. Indigo Five7/2
  2. Breathe Again20/1
  3. Glen Princess5/1
