Forecasts

Ciel D'afrique (15/8), Smile At Me (16/5), Lady Dahlia (7/2), Autumn Evening (9/2), Emerald Green (15/2), Peckham Springs (11/1), Belper Rose (40/1), Walnut Beach (50/1), Letter At Dawn (66/1), Dammit (100/1), Banjo (125/1), Calcite (125/1), Dathuil Dearg (125/1), Poets Touch (250/1), My Boy Zac (250/1)

Verdict

CIEL D'AFRIQUE has shown more than enough to suggest he can win a maiden and the fitting of headgear can see him get his head in front back from a break. Autumn Evening finished clear of the rest when an improved third at Navan 2 weeks ago and is next best ahead of Smile at Me, who caught the eye on debut at Naas on Sunday.
