Forecasts

Un Bacio Ancora (5/2), Inflection Point (11/4), Zig Zag Zyggy (7/2), Maid To Shine (10/1), Betrayed (14/1), Just Another (16/1), Red Cymbal (20/1), Adam's Angel (20/1), Shining Crystal (22/1), Pillar (22/1), Carla's Kodi Bear (40/1), Drummond Warrior (50/1), Darcy's Rock (50/1)

Verdict

INFLECTION POINT isn't one to set your watch by but he put in a good shift starting out for this yard when a close third over C&D last week and a reproduction of that effort would give him every chance. Next on the list is Un Bacio Ancora, who found just one too good in a maiden here recently and is on an appealing mark back in handicap company. Pillar wasn't disgraced last time and makes some each-way appeal.

  1. INFLECTION POINT (IRE)
  2. UN BACIO ANCORA (IRE)
  3. PILLAR
