Forecasts

Eziyra (11/8), I'm So Fancy (9/2), Beautiful Morning (11/2), Who's Steph (7/1), Broadway (9/1), Panstarr (12/1), Curly (25/1), Clear Skies (25/1), Rionach (25/1)

Verdict

Eziyra warrants plenty of respect, but given she's given to take up plenty of the market here, it might be worth taking a chance on WHO'S STEPH who wasn't disgraced in a Group 1 last time and ought to be competitive down in class here. I'm So Fancy looks well worth a crack at this grade and shouldn't be ruled out with more progress entirely feasible.
  1. Who's Steph
  2. Eziyra
  3. I'm So Fancy
