Forecasts

Silver Nightfall (6/5), Violeta (9/4), Direct Hit (7/2), Monty Man (7/1), Margaret's Fuchsia (12/1), Oskar (25/1)

Verdict

DIRECT HIT was much improved when second over C&D last month and a reproduction of that form could be good enough to see him get off the mark. Silver Nightfall ought to remain competitive, with Violeta also feared returning from a break.

  1. DIRECT HIT (IRE)
  2. SILVER NIGHTFALL
