Forecasts

Verdict

BALLET SHOES has looked deeply progressive in three runs so far for Ballydoyle, readily helping herself to a Listed prize at Tipperary this month. She will handle the ground here and is more than capable of this step up in class. Black Sails has been asked a couple of tough questions since winning on debut and joins Sometimesadiamond, winner of a Fairyhouse maiden in June, in having scope for doing plenty better in time. Liquid Amber is perhaps most interesting of the remainder.
