Forecasts

Little Miss Dante (6/4), Mermaids Cave (7/2), Easy To Follow (5/1), Rialannah (8/1), Sedge Wren (9/1), Could Be Trouble (10/1), Kay Tara Tara (16/1), River Robe (22/1), Vicki Vale (25/1)

Verdict

A case can be made for all of these but James Owen continues among the winners and his MERMAIDS CAVE is taken to resume her progress after a break and bag a fourth victory for the yard. The handily-weighted Kay Tara Tara is feared most starting out for a new stable after breathing surgery, while Could Be Trouble, Little Miss Dante and Vicki Vale all need factoring in too.

  1. MERMAIDS CAVE (IRE)
  2. KAY TARA TARA
  3. COULD BE TROUBLE (IRE)
