Forecasts

Larchmont Lass (11/4), Pretending (11/4), Mermaids Cave (13/2), All The Glory (8/1), Greyval (11/1), Bethpage (12/1), Good Look Charm (12/1), The Height Of Fame (14/1), Ma Belle Noire (14/1), Porter In The Park (16/1), Space Voyage (16/1), Pure Theatre (20/1), Sabrina (28/1), Strong Belle (28/1)

Verdict

Two defeats in the spring shouldn't be taken to suggest LARCHMONT LASS can't do some damage from this sort of mark and she can make a successful return from wind surgery back at the scene of her novice win. Mermaids Cave is yet another who has thrived for the switch to James Owen and is next on the list ahead of Pretending and Bethpage.

  1. LARCHMONT LASS (IRE)
  2. MERMAIDS CAVE (IRE)
  3. PRETENDING (IRE)
