Forecasts

Above The Curve (6/5), Thoughts Of June (5/1), Eyaziya (13/2), Emily Dickinson (7/1), Married In A Fever (8/1), Star Angel (11/1), Red Azalea (12/1), Hymn Book Too (22/1), Airglow (33/1), Stellarock (100/1), Hotter Than Hades (125/1), Pink Fire Lilly (200/1)

Verdict

Despite starting slowly, ABOVE THE CURVE very much caught the eye when third in a 1m maiden on debut here in October, noted finishing off to very good effect. She's open to significant improvement with that under her belt now embarking on her 3-y-o campaign and gets the narrow vote, with Thoughts of June a similarly promising sort rating the chief threat. Newcomer Eyaziya and Emily Dickinson complete the shortlist.

  1. ABOVE THE CURVE (USA)
  2. THOUGHTS OF JUNE (IRE)
  3. EYAZIYA (IRE)
