Forecasts

Seventy (5/2), Off Spin (3/1), Princess Niyla (10/3), Shimmering Sands (4/1), Lenny's Spirit (11/2), Satyress (6/1), Porter's Song (12/1), Arranmore (16/1), Falcon Nine (18/1), Nanny Park (33/1), African Spirit (50/1), Sweet Cicely (66/1)

Verdict

PRINCESS NIYLA has looked as good as ever this season, bumping into a couple of improvers when third at Redcar last time, and she makes plenty of appeal from her current mark. She gets the vote ahead of Seventy, who has taken his form up a notch for his current yard this year, with Arranmore completing the shortlist.

  1. PRINCESS NIYLA
  2. SEVENTY
  3. ARRANMORE
