Forecasts

Why Delilah (2/1), Bop Bop Bobbin (3/1), Bohemian Summer (5/1), Whispering Pines (6/1), Broomfield Gale (17/2), Stage Lady (14/1), Visible Attraction (16/1), Watermark (33/1), Noble Annys (40/1), Kathleen Gold (50/1), You Make Me Smile (150/1)

Verdict

Those with experience don't set the bar particularly high so Gordon Elliott newcomer WHY DELILAH gets the vote, with confidence in her chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Visible Attraction and Bop Bop Bobbin both offered something to work on when placed in similar events over Christmas and can give the selection most to do.

  1. WHY DELILAH (IRE)
  2. STAGE LADY (IRE)
  3. BOP BOP BOBBIN (IRE)
