Forecasts

Belgravian (5/4), Tralee Girl (3/1), Not Now Nathaniel (4/1), Cayman Dancer (5/1), Doddington Guy (15/2), Dubaian (14/1), Brave Emerald (66/1)

TRALEE GIRL showed enough in 2 AW starts last winter to think she can win a race like this, particularly as this much longer trip should suit on pedigree. Belgravian is likely capable of better and is feared most unless the betting vibes are notably strong surrounding Charlie Johnston newcomer Cayman Dancer.
