Forecasts

Fratas (9/4), Miss Gherkin (5/2), Flidais (7/2), Maxios Prime (5/1), Dame Rapide (13/2), First Dare (8/1), Andyourbirdcansing (10/1), Brilliant Question (11/1), She Is Electric (22/1)

Verdict

MISS GHERKIN made a positive start for new trainer Eoin Griffin when second at Clonmel recently and is given a chance to build on that promise. Fratas has been in good form under both codes this spring and is second choice ahead of Philip Rothwell's Maxios Prime.
