Forecasts

Glendine River (5/2), Twilight Shadow (7/2), Pat's Pearl (7/1), Strike Is Back (7/1), My Pollyanna (7/1), Bell Of The Ball (8/1), Little Stampy (10/1), Veronica's Napkin (16/1)

Verdict

GLENDINE RIVER has more to do after her rise in the weights for her Tramore win but she was convincing there and can follow up at the expense of Veronica's Napkin, who should have more to offer this season, and Strike Is Back, who will be happier back in handicap company.
  1. Glendine River
  2. Veronica's Napkin
  3. Strike Is Back
