Forecasts

Rubenesque (7/2), Grageelagh Girl (5/1), Smiling Eliza (6/1), Queen's Magic (15/2), Stop Talking (8/1), Gemologist (8/1), Peters Cousin (8/1), River Icon (11/1), West Coast Lass (12/1), Sarvi (22/1), Kalaniti (28/1)

Verdict

Were it not for the fact she's trained by Gordon Elliott and will be ridden by the champion jockey, you'd struggle to get with Smiling Eliza on what she's been doing, but such is Elliott's dominance here that she simply must be respected. Stop Talking could strip fitter for a recent outing and is worth a second look, but maybe WEST COAST LASS is the answer. She has some good C&D form to her name and might get an easy lead here. She's worth a bet at a likely good price.
  1. West Coast Lass
  2. Stop Talking
  3. Smiling Eliza
