Forecasts

Nivvo (8/11), Wedding Photo (10/3), Long Wood (9/2), Cavelli (10/1), Coolbawn Magic (16/1), Nisior Donn (16/1), Bunnie Eyes (20/1), Cool No More (20/1), Emirates Flight (25/1), Spanish Dawn (33/1), Ava (100/1)

Verdict

WEDDING PHOTO was sent off favourite on her sole outing for her previous trainer and she can make a winning debut for trainer Peter Fahey in this maiden contest restricted to fillies and mares. The selection cost connections £25,000 at the sales in November and can see off Nivvo who drops in trip today following some highly creditable efforts here in recent times. Emirates Flight placed in maiden company on debut and while she disappointed on her only outing last year the fitting of a hood should help and she can finish third on her debut for this stable.
