Forecasts

Maroochi (10/3), Saint Bibiana (7/2), Honey I'm Good (4/1), Kentford Mallard (5/1), Mollie Brown (13/2), Jaunty Belle (14/1), Heure De Gloire (20/1), Step It Out Goldie (22/1), Shirocco's Dream (25/1), Sevenofus (40/1)

Verdict

SAINT BIBIANA took her form up a notch when going in at Stratford and a 6 lb rise doesn't look sufficient to prevent her from following up given she's still unexposed over staying trips. The reliable Kentford Mallard appeals as the one to chase home Georgina Nicholls' mare, with Maroochi, Jaunty Belle and Mollie Brown all worthy of respect too.

  1. SAINT BIBIANA (IRE)
  2. KENTFORD MALLARD
  3. MAROOCHI
