Forecasts

Zermatt Star (9/4), Sanctijude (5/2), Marjorie Daw (4/1), Yousaynothingatall (4/1), All Is Bright (10/1), Sea Of Dubka (16/1), Queen Earthlight (20/1), Chablis Rock (22/1), Apiary (33/1), Nathema (33/1), Sands Castle (200/1), Venerated (300/1)

There were positives to take from ZERMATT STAR's debut sixth in at Punchestown maiden last month and, likely to take a step forward here with that experience to draw upon, she could be the answer. Sanctijude sets a decent standard judged on form such as her latest third in a nursery at the Curragh, but she doesn't look especially progressive. Marjorie Daw should come on for her debut spin and she also enters calculations, along with likely-looking newcomers Sea of Dubka and Queen Earthlight.
