Forecasts

Face Off (9/2), Mi Esperanza (6/1), Noirvento (7/1), Doonard Prince (7/1), Enter The Red (8/1), Straffan (10/1), May Remain (10/1), Polly Douglas (10/1), Rag Tatter (12/1), Teddy Boy (14/1), Pillar (16/1), Boughtinthedark (16/1), Bonnie Park (20/1), Harry Speed (25/1), Rego Park Lady (33/1), Merited (33/1), An Cait Dubh (33/1), D K Travel (50/1)

Verdict

Plenty of these finished behind Doonard Prince last time, but there is plenty to recommend runner-up MI ESPERANZA, and she is taken to turn the tables. Face Off, third that day, is also preferred to the veteran winner, with Enter The Red also considered if lining up on the back of a good third at the Curragh on Tuesday.
  1. Mi Esperanza
  2. Face Off
  3. Enter The Red
