Forecasts

Fly Away Home (5/4), Babyburn (2/1), Louie's Folly (9/2), Doing It In Style (17/2), Meghan Mala (12/1), Kisuton Enki (25/1), Chosen Princess (33/1), Jessie Roe (50/1), Dream Frequency (66/1), Ma Lumiere (125/1), Little Neck Road (150/1), Dceilingcantholdus (200/1), Breeze Of Tobruk (500/1)

Verdict

Preference is for LOUIE'S FOLLY, who looked short of pace when runner-up here last time and will benefit from this stiffer test of stamina. Fly Away Home and Meghan Mala are also of interest.

  1. LOUIE'S FOLLY
  2. FLY AWAY HOME (IRE)
  3. MEGHAN MALA (IRE)
