Forecasts

Azua Emery (13/8), Edna (3/1), Cristal Icon (4/1), Little Princess (7/1), Ar Eagla Na Heagla (8/1), Tildas Icon (10/1), Bright Lass (66/1), Onemoreask (66/1)

Verdict

Not an easy race to call with Edna making her racecourse bow and boasting a pedigree that suggests she will win races. The betting ought to be the best guide to her chances, whilst Azua Emery has so far failed to live up to market expectations. Thomas Mullins has his horses going well and he is strongly represented with Cristal Icon and TILDAS ICON. Both have shown some ability but the latter's C&D form on her hurdling debut looks good enough if reproduced here.
  1. Tildas Icon
  2. Azua Emery
  3. Edna
