Forecasts

Kudbegood (16/5), Miss Florentine (7/2), Blyton (7/1), Ecliptic Moon (15/2), Blankiedoodie (15/2), Lady Leanora (11/1), Alice Milligan (12/1), Take My Hand (12/1), Socratic (12/1), Tyrion's Dream (12/1), Leabaland (14/1), Hidden Spark (16/1), Drish Hero (16/1), Robert Guiscard (20/1), Maestro Stick (20/1), Absolute One Right (40/1), Rockview Empress (50/1), Tidal Racer (150/1)

Verdict

KUDBEGOOD shaped as if on a good mark when third at Roscommon last week, going well when not clear run over 1f out, so he remains one to be interested in. Alice Milligan and Ecliptic Moon are a couple of potential threats.

  1. KUDBEGOOD (IRE)
  2. ALICE MILLIGAN (IRE)
  3. ECLIPTIC MOON (IRE)
