Forecasts

Kate Appleby Shoes (9/10), Awayinthewest (2/1), The Kings Baby (8/1), Theatre Wine (10/1), Marienstar (12/1), Carrigeen Acebo (40/1), Strike Is Back (50/1), Right So Joe (100/1), Mary Frances (100/1), Ballytier Princess (100/1), Princess Mahler (100/1), Pyrford Pippin (100/1), Ask Pippa (100/1), Baltic Black (100/1), San Calista (100/1)

Verdict

KATE APPLEBY SHOES has had a couple of goes in this sphere without obliging but there seems every chance this smart bumper performer will make it third time lucky. She's entitled to be improving and has the scope for plenty more. Awayinthewest will be no pushover having also run well in two starts over timber and can ensure the selection has work to do while Theatre Wine can take leading order if none the worse for her recent fall. Strike Is Back is also an interesting newcomer for a trainer with his team in super order. 1. Kate Appleby Shoes 2. Awayinthewest 3. Strike Is Back
