Forecasts

Amberose (15/8), Methodtothemadness (5/2), Lily's Gem (7/2), Lady Samback (7/1), Georgian Firebird (11/1), Russian Royale (40/1)

The three at the top of the handicap may have this between them. Narrow preference is for Irish raider LILY'S GEM who makes her handicap debut and represents last year's winning stable. In-form Methodtothemadness won over C&D last time in novice company and also contests a handicap for the first time. She has plenty of weight but could still be improving and is feared. Amberose won over C&D last season and ran well at Perth after that. Her fine yard can get one ready so she too may be on the premises despite a summer break.
