Forecasts

Verdict

KATONAH remains a maiden but she very much caught the eye when finishing third in a big-field Galway handicap back in October, likely she'd have gone very close but for meeting with trouble in running. She gets the nod on AW debut, with Wajaaha who has been in good form recently rating the lead threat. Power Drive and Picpoul also make some appeal.

  1. KATONAH (IRE)
