Irish challenger PORTETTA possesses much the best form on show so is taken to build on her promising Tipperary debut second and open her account. Both Soul Limbo and The Great Escape have better days ahead of them too though so can both go well, while Olly Murphy's newcomer Wester Clouds can't be discounted, especially if the market vibes are positive.
