Forecasts

Masen (4/5), Van Gogh (4/1), Toshizou (7/1), Liberada (9/1), Exuma (10/1), Blue For You (20/1), True Conviction (25/1), Brehon Star (33/1), Charterhouse (66/1), Amazing Emma (80/1), Moonhall Girl (150/1)

Verdict

This is a wide open looking maiden with no previous form to go on. Blue For You, Liberada and True Conviction all make appeal on paper and should be winning races further down the line. Toshizou is Joseph O'Briens sole runner in the line-up and is respected with the yard operating at a 20% strike rate in the last 14 days. Meanwhile, the Juddmonte-bred Masen is also fancied to go close for Ger Lyons. However, VAN GOGH is fancied to make a winning debut under Wayne Lordan. This extremely well-bred son of American Pharoah is a half-brother to a raft of group winners, most notably the smart Horatio Nelson who was a Group One winning two-year-old.
