Forecasts

Pipers Cross (3/1), Florencethemachine (9/2), Up For Parol (7/1), Saunton Surf (15/2), Sister Michael (8/1), Sporting Mike (9/1), Danton (10/1), Jersey Lady (10/1), Hurricane Danny (18/1), John W Creasy (20/1), Halifax (25/1), Midnightreflection (25/1), Galloping Pride (25/1), A Definite Getaway (25/1), Gaelic Park (28/1), San Fermin (100/1)

Verdict

PIPERS CROSS steps up in grade now but had plenty to spare over C&D last time and further improvement can't be ruled out, so she's preferred to Up For Parol, with Florencethemachine an obvious player if the step up in trip suits.

  1. PIPERS CROSS (IRE)
  2. UP FOR PAROL (IRE)
  3. FLORENCETHEMACHINE (IRE)
