Forecasts

You Some Girl (5/1), Mrs Biddle (11/2), Schiehallion (11/2), Georgia Celena (7/1), Fassbender (7/1), Gaye Winnie (8/1), Bishbashbosh (8/1), Jimli's Cave (17/2), Il Silenzio (12/1), Cullenwaine (16/1), Jetaway To Getaway (20/1), Getaway Erin (50/1), Renard De Noir (80/1)

Verdict

A few with chances but MRS BIDDLE looks the way to go here on the back of her good Tramore third. Bishbashbosh appeals as a likely improver now going handicapping so is next on the list ahead of Fassbender and Georgia Celena.

  1. MRS BIDDLE (IRE)
  2. BISHBASHBOSH (IRE)
  3. FASSBENDER (IRE)
