Forecasts

Ruler Of France (11/8), Lady Nathaniel (9/2), Military Hill (13/2), Fashaar (13/2), Palmones (12/1), Sennockian Star (14/1), California Lad (16/1), Empress Lyla (20/1), Rabbie The Bard (25/1), Cairdiuil (50/1), Nuqood (50/1)

Verdict

There is plenty to like about the chances of C&D winner RULER OF FRANCE here who has conditions to suit running off an 8lb lower mark than his last win at Ballinrobe in July 2016 and can get back to winning ways in this contest. Last time out beaten favourite Lady Nathaniel can hit the frame while Empress Lyla could surprise at a big price.
  1. Ruler Of France
  2. Lady Nathaniel
  3. Empress Lyla
