Forecasts

Janes Harbour (4/11), Preparations (7/2), Rhythm Of Life (11/1), Game Phoenix (12/1), Atlantic City (16/1), Guess What (28/1), Samba Train (40/1), Kick On Nellie (66/1), Wild Wild Wind (66/1), Lady's Choice (100/1), Kentucky Bluebird (125/1)

Verdict

Preference is for JANES HARBOUR, who was left with too much to do and probably should have won on handicap debut at Fairyhouse in February. With further progress on the cards, she can make amends returned to maiden company at the expense of Rhythm of Life, who offered something to work on amidst clear signs of inexperience when fifth at Navan recently. Preparations was last seen in winning action on the Flat last October, and she completes the shortlist sent hurdling.
