Forecasts

Raknah (5/2), Vivienda (9/2), Darkdeserthighway (6/1), Next Trick (7/1), Pink Socks (8/1), Pier Pressure (17/2), Elegant Madame (12/1), Vassula Ryden (16/1), Dabana (18/1), Hightimeyouwon (25/1), Charming Lady (40/1), The Black Tiger (80/1)

Verdict

The well-bred VIVIENDA improved to get off the mark in an 18-runner handicap at Fairyhouse last time and there's more to come, so she's the obvious choice. Raknah and Elegant Madame look the main dangers.

  1. Vivienda9/2
  2. Raknah5/2
  3. Elegant Madame12/1
