Forecasts

Henning (10/3), I Am Shadow (7/2), One Cool Lady (11/2), Law Ella (6/1), Glenanore (8/1), Sunshine Girl (17/2), El Poppochapo (12/1), Brompton Park (14/1), Gold Haven (18/1), Go Lassie Go (33/1), Emily B (50/1), Chuggys Queen (66/1)

Verdict

LAW ELLA might well need further in time but, in a weak race, it's worth taking a chance that she has enough ability to pull her through on debut. Henning is a player if she can put a poor run behind her and Sunshine Girl is also worth considering on the back of a mildly promising start.

  1. LAW ELLA (IRE)
  2. HENNING (IRE)
  3. ONE COOL LADY (IRE)
