Forecasts

Redhotfillypeppers (11/10), Castafiore Park (6/4), Lady Mangan (10/1), Sweetlight D'oroux (14/1), Welmeetintheoffice (20/1), Ilsnepasserontpas (25/1), More Information (33/1), Rayna Jaymes (33/1)

Verdict

Redhotfillypeppers is a consistent sort who is likely to be getting her head in front sooner rather than later but preference is for the slightly less exposed CASTAFIORE PARK. Paul Nolan's mare looks set to appreciate the step back up in trip here and the booking of Bryan Cooper again in the saddle is another positive having got a big run out of her last time out. Sweetlight D'oroux could be the most interesting of the remaining runners and ought to be doing better at some point.
