Forecasts

Pandagreen (2/1), Dragon Fei (4/1), Lady Derrynane (5/1), Elm Grove (5/1), Dancing Doll (6/1), Magen's Moon (10/1), Sweet Sounds (10/1), Remarkable Lady (11/1), Cirin Toinne (12/1)

Verdict

Bottom weight PANDAGREEN was a winner in first time cheekpieces last time out and she can record her third career success by taking the Ulster Oaks here. The selection carries bottom weight in this and can see off Dragon Fei who is likely to tackle better ground than she encountered last time out at The Curragh while Dancing Doll who represents a shrewd stable can claim third on her return.
  1. Pandagreen
  2. Dragon Fei
  3. Dancing Doll
