Forecasts

Spanish Angel (6/4), Hit Mac (10/3), Munificent (4/1), Waverley Star (11/1), Nacho (18/1), Boom The Groom (18/1), Storm Melody (20/1), Glamorous Force (25/1), Macon Belle (33/1), But You Said (40/1)

Verdict

SPANISH ANGEL has been shaping up well in recent weeks (runner-up on his last 3 starts) so it's surely only a matter of time before Ruth Carr's charge snaps a losing run stretching back to summer 2021. He gets the nod ahead of Munificent, who is threatening to come good soon and again wasn't seen to best effect over C&D 12 days ago, while Storm Melody and Hit Mac round off the shortlist.

  1. SPANISH ANGEL (IRE)
  2. MUNIFICENT
  3. STORM MELODY
