Forecasts

La Petite Coco (2/1), Thunder Kiss (11/4), Willow (4/1), Silence Please (7/1), Federica Sophia (9/1), High Heels (12/1), Traisha (12/1), Yaxeni (16/1), Amma Grace (18/1), Camphor (50/1), Rosscarbery (125/1)

Verdict

LA PETITE COCO was beaten ½-length by Willow in a listed race at Naas in June, but she appeared to raise her game a notch when scoring at Killarney next time and there may well be better to come. Willow was by no means disgraced in the Irish Oaks subsequently and should give another good account, but Thunder Kiss is second choice on the assumption that Silence Please will not take her chance.

  1. LA PETITE COCO (IRE)
  2. THUNDER KISS (IRE)
  3. WILLOW (IRE)
