Forecasts

Silver Fox (15/8), Vultan (11/4), Chiricahua (4/1), Oh So True (5/1), Classify (10/1), Lady Hanson (14/1), Danger Money (50/1), Howey (80/1), Master Cornwall (80/1), Pure Nature (100/1), Lady Of Magic Hill (250/1)

Verdict

The claims of Oh So True, who cost €750,000 as a yearling are obvious but the manner of her defeat at Fairyhouse earlier this month has to be a cause for concern. The Ger Lyons-trained CHIRICHUA can get off the mark for connections at the fourth time of asking following a run in the Group 1 Irish Derby last month. The Camelot colt was a little out of his depth at the Curragh but can make amends at the expense of the Joseph O'Brien-trained Vultan, who can improve on debut effort at Naas in November, Classify for trainer Dermot Weld and the Ballydoyle representative, Silver Fox who needs to improve on a couple of defeats in maiden company.
  1. Chiricahua
  2. Vultan
  3. Oh So True
