Forecasts

Natacata (8/11), Buxlow Boy (3/1), Nusra (5/1), Duke Of Vienna (14/1)

Verdict

Though winless following 23 attempts in this sphere, NUSRA would have every chance of belatedly opening her account if able to reproduce the form of her effort at Limerick in April where she went close in a 15-runner handicap off this mark. The Irish raider is an appealing alternative to likely favourite Natacata, who showed improvement when going down narrowly at Lingfield last time. Duke of Vienna won't be far away if able to build on his latest effort on this debut for new connections.

  1. NATACATA
  2. NUSRA (IRE)
  3. DUKE OF VIENNA (USA)
