Forecasts

Beechwood Glory (13/8), Roman Crystal (7/2), Flashing Star (11/2), Mick's The Boy (6/1), Ponte Carlo (7/1), Black Cuillin (14/1), Lone Striker (16/1), Unbeatable Fame (28/1), Redrosecastana (28/1), Coul Blue (33/1)

Verdict

Not a maiden that will take much winning and ROMAN CRYSTAL might be the way to go as she leaves the impression she has a bigger effort in her. Ponte Carlo's best run has come on the all-weather but he looks a big player in this company. Beechwood Glory and newcomer Lone Striker are also of interest.

  1. ROMAN CRYSTAL (IRE)
  2. PONTE CARLO (IRE)
  3. BEECHWOOD GLORY (IRE)
