Forecasts

Feeling The Love (4/6), Ejayteekay (10/3), Harrys Gift (5/1), Lady Argentum (16/1), Knockraha Pride (40/1), Cock A Doodle Doo (50/1), Vocal Heir (66/1)

Verdict

Harrys Gift clearly has a small race in her but this should concern the two previous winners Ejayteekay and FEELING THE LOVE. The former has been raised to an official mark of 109 having landed a second handicap two weeks ago. That mark may overestimate her and still sets her a stiff task in conceding wait to the selection who showed an impressive turn of foot to go clear at Killarney last week. Trainer Jessica Harrington has a good record in this and is expected take it to three wins in the last four years.
