Forecasts

Silent Performance (3/1), Spruce Meadows (5/1), Saran (13/2), Dammit (8/1), Cliara (8/1), Hammersmith (17/2), Dha Leath (9/1), Never Mistabeat (12/1), Rockview Empress (16/1), Self Assessed (20/1), Mulgrave (40/1), Riva (50/1)

Verdict

SILENT PERFORMANCE arrives on the back of an excellent second at Leopardstown last month and is fancied to go one better off the same mark and open her account. In-form Dha Leath is also bidding for her first success and is feared most, while Saran is another who needs a second look in an open handicap.
