Forecasts

Kingswood (13/8), Fleetfoot (9/4), Blues Emperor (9/2), Snowcapped (5/1), Keep In Touch (8/1), Vega Magnifico (8/1), Miramis (17/2), Alanya (10/1), Carracci (14/1), Curvature (16/1), Adelaise (25/1), Any Dream Will Do (66/1), Maud Gonne Spirit (80/1), Fizzical (80/1)

Verdict

KINGSWOOD produced a smart effort when second in a big-field handicap at the Curragh last time and looks capable of winning at this level. Joseph O'Brien is seeking a hat-trick of wins in this contest and his Miramis, already a winner in similar company this year, is second choice ahead of recent Curragh Group 3 Fourth Snowcapped.

  1. KINGSWOOD
  2. MIRAMIS (IRE)
  3. SNOWCAPPED (IRE)
