Forecasts

Duhallow Gesture (7/4), Graceland (2/1), Mega Double (11/4), Millie The Minx (3/1), Our Kylie (6/1), Cape Fair (6/1), Tickerty Boo (25/1)

Verdict

Most of these look to face a stiff task given that three of them have to operate from out of the weights although Millie The Minx out of that trio shouldn’t be totally written off for a trainer (Dianne Sayer) who has a good record here and the rider (Danny McMenamin) is an obvious plus. Graceland having jumped left all the way last time will appreciate going back left-handed although MEGA DOUBLE appeals more with handicaps looking to be the sphere that will show her in a better light after some very sound novice runs; the James Moffatt yard always to be respected at their local track.
  1. Mega Double
  2. Millie The Minx
  3. Graceland
