Forecasts

You Say Its Over (5/1), Dr Shirocco (11/2), Whispering Dancer (6/1), Uptown Harry (8/1), Shesupincourt (8/1), Iturgeon Du Breuil (8/1), Gibberwell (8/1), King Of Cong (9/1), I See The Sea (11/1), Don Brocco (11/1), Eveque (22/1)

Verdict

DR SHIROCCO should be spot on for this after a recent outing over hurdles and has a more solid record than the majority of these. A market move for point winner Whispering Dancer would bring him firmly into the reckoning on his chase and handicap debut. You Say Its Over completes the shortlist.

  1. DR SHIROCCO (IRE)
  2. WHISPERING DANCER (IRE)
  3. YOU SAY ITS OVER (IRE)
