Forecasts

Emerald Eclipse (4/5), Take Me To Church (10/3), Sir Sagacious (9/2), Sobriety Blue (11/1), Go Girl Go (18/1), Tranquil Steps (25/1), Whatswrongnow (40/1), Memories To Last (50/1), Behomebyhalfpast (100/1)

Verdict

TAKE ME TO CHURCH didn't have to improve to beat a subsequent winner here in November and is the form pick under a penalty. Emerald Eclipse made a promising start when runner-up in a C&D maiden 2 weeks ago and is an obvious threat, while his stablemate Tranquil Steps is a newcomer to note.
