Forecasts

Panic Attack (9/4), Kissesforkatie (4/1), Gazette Bourgeoise (13/2), Nora The Xplorer (7/1), Bellatrixsa (7/1), Trapista (8/1), Tequila Blaze (9/1), Her Indoors (11/1), Litterale Ci (16/1), Eglantine Du Seuil (25/1)

Verdict

This has a very open look to it but KISSESFORKATIE has a very likeable way of going about things and, given she arrives on the up, her revised mark may well be in range. Nora The Xplorer's limit has not yet been reached and she is feared, while Her Indoors is out of form but does have an attractive mark to exploit.

  1. KISSESFORKATIE (IRE)
  2. NORA THE XPLORER
  3. HER INDOORS (IRE)
