Forecasts

So Beautiful (13/8), Secret Magician (10/3), Lopes Gold (5/1), Squeezebox (6/1), Toriangel (13/2), Shoebox King (8/1), Gobi Star (17/2), Starsong (11/1), Baalbec Beauty (18/1), Keep Sharp (18/1), Coolree (28/1), Pineapple Island (33/1), Albatala (33/1), The Penny (50/1), Chain Of Destiny (50/1), Magical Vision (50/1), Tijuana (66/1), Caesiere (100/1), Luck Of The Dice (100/1), Crimson Flag (125/1), Janice Joplin (250/1), Empress Lily (250/1)

Verdict

Aidan O'Brien's SO BEAUTIFUL holds the edge on form and looks to have been found a good opportunity to open her account on the back of her very good Tipperary third. Toriangel should benefit from this drop in trip so is next on the list, with Starsong appealing as the pick of the remainder for place purposes.

  1. SO BEAUTIFUL (IRE)
  2. TORIANGEL (IRE)
  3. STARSONG (IRE)
