Forecasts

Mur Hiba (2/1), Music Box (2/1), Red Sabor (11/4), Swish (11/4), Solar Halo (7/2)

Verdict

Music Box recovered from a sketchy start to win at Naas last time but it has already been a hectic campaign and a similarly sloppy beginning could be fatal now tackling 5f for the first time. Mur Hiba's runner-up finish in a Group 3 last year is respected but she has a long absence to defy here and so SOLAR HALO gets the nod. She was a very good maiden winner at the Curragh in May and though she's let herself down since in two runs, she's surely capable of better. Red Sabor produced a career-best at Bellewstown a week ago and is set to go well once more.
