Forecasts

Karalee (4/5), Lieutenant Colonel (13/8), Knockraha Pylon (9/1), Jaime Sommers (10/1)

Although this is just a four-runner contest there are a number of traps that await in what could turn into a tactical battle. Jaime Sommers and Karalee have been shown to want less testing conditions than predicted and the latter may want a stiffer test. Knockraha Pylon is the most natural two-miler in this but lacks the class of her rivals. LIEUTENANT COLONEL is a dual Grade 1 winner whose best form has come over further. He travelled well for a long way last time though over 2m2f when just denied in a similar contest. The Gigginstown runner earns the vote by virtue of that effort and in the expectation he handles conditions better than Karalee.
