Forecasts

Oh Cecelia (10/3), Chicago Pope (7/2), Joyful Tidings (4/1), Amiata (6/1), Midnight Dusk (7/1), Nakamura (7/1), Shadow Run (11/1), Michael's Well (16/1)

Verdict

SHADOW RUN and Midnight Dusk might have a fitness edge over some of these, with narrow preference for the former on the back of his fine effort in handicap company at Naas a couple of weeks ago. October's Navan maiden winner Michael's Well appeals as one who can go on to even better things this year and is next on the list.

  1. SHADOW RUN (IRE)
  2. MIDNIGHT DUSK
  3. MICHAEL'S WELL (IRE)
