Forecasts

Queen Amidala (11/4), Calonne (7/2), Time Tunnel (4/1), Made My Day (4/1), Segenhoe (9/1), Bodak (12/1), Latent Heat (14/1), Clockers Corner (16/1), Dance Jupiter (16/1), Dromartin (25/1), Be Fair (50/1)

Verdict

An uncompetitive affair in which many can be ruled out with confidence. After being dropped back in trip to this distance last time, Made My Day posted a much more encouraging effort to finish third at Limerick and there should be plenty more to come from him on just his second start over 1m. The pair to focus on look to be Queen Amidala and Time Tunnel. The former managed to reverse placings with the latter after their encounter over this C&D last time at Galway, but Dermot Weld's filly did not run in accordance with market expectations and is fancied to get the better of the Joseph Murphy runner, just as she did two starts ago.
  1. Time Tunnel
  2. Queen Amidala
  3. Made My Day
