Forecasts

Court Maid (11/8), Storm Control (5/1), Potters Legend (7/1), Black Corton (7/1), Commodore (15/2), West Approach (8/1), Steely Addition (25/1)

Verdict

COURT MAID arrives firmly on the up tackling more exposed types, so she makes most appeal on just her second visit to the track. Storm Control has to be respected following her course success last month and Black Corton has the class to get involved dropping back down in grade.

  1. COURT MAID (IRE)
  2. STORM CONTROL (IRE)
  3. BLACK CORTON (FR)
