Forecasts

I Look How I Look (15/8), Coilrock (10/3), Call Me Arthur (9/2), Fantomas (5/1), Emma Hamilton (13/2), Johns Dream (10/1), Saint Bibiana (10/1), Silver Atom (11/1), I Got Stung (16/1), Lion's Vigil (20/1), Milanese Rose (20/1), Our Flying Angel (28/1), League Clash (33/1), Brucie Bonus (100/1)

Verdict

A few with chances but SAINT BIBIANA should prove suited by this step up in trip so looks the way to go off a lenient mark in her bid for a breakthrough hurdling victory. Call Me Arthur is feared most on the back of his good Ffos Las second, although a solid case can also be made for the likes of I Look How I Look, Lion's Vigil and Fantomas.

  1. SAINT BIBIANA (IRE)
  2. CALL ME ARTHUR (IRE)
  3. I LOOK HOW I LOOK (SPA)
