Forecasts

Wait For No One (5/2), Royal Illusion (7/2), Miss Aloud (4/1), Ghurba (5/1), Vic's Little Miss (13/2), Grove Hill (14/1), Three Thirds (20/1), Wonderful Woman (100/1)

Verdict

ROYAL ILLUSION is bred to make an impact in bumpers being a daughter of King's Theatre, and she can make a winning debut for Willie Mullins at the expense of Wait For No One, who has looked a nice prospect in two starts to date. Ghurba is an interesting newcomer from the Noel Meade yard, and has a decent middle-distance pedigree. She needs a second look in the market.
