Forecasts

Verdict

Impressive when landing each of her first 3 starts in bumpers last summer, AURORA VEGA was probably keener than ideal back from 4 months off when fourth behind stablemate Fleur au Fusil at Leopardstown in February. However, she remains one to be positive about and a better showing can be expected here. Impressive debut winner Mozzies Sister and aforementioned Fleur au Fusil head up the dangers, along with Air of Entitlement who also impressed on her Rules debut.

  1. AURORA VEGA (IRE)
  2. MOZZIES SISTER (IRE)
  3. FLEUR AU FUSIL (FR)
