Forecasts

Dylan's Sea Song (3/1), Karannelle (7/2), Costly Diamond (4/1), Scotsbrook Night (9/2), She's A Novelty (5/1), Jessica Rabbit (6/1), Kalinda (7/1), Topkapi Star (15/2), Persuer (18/1), Minnie Mahler (50/1), Storm Girl (66/1)

Verdict

COSTLY DIAMOND has to prove she's as effective over hurdles, but she was in top form during the spring and, now returning with her yard in excellent order, she looks the way to go. She's A Novelty, Karannelle and Dylan's Sea Song are all reliable at this level and head the opposition.

  1. COSTLY DIAMOND (IRE)
  2. SHE'S A NOVELTY (IRE)
  3. KARANNELLE (IRE)
