Forecasts

Tigeralley (6/5), Lerichi Belle (9/4), Overawed (7/2), Rule The Ocean (5/1), Bennys Girl (11/2), Ask Catkin (13/2), Eastern Lady (7/1), Monet Moor (16/1)

Verdict

Nothing has a solid profile coming into this and some caution is advised. Overawed would probably take the beating if she could repeat her Chepstow second but there are too many moderate efforts in between the good ones to make her a solid selection here. Tigeralley has a chance if she can put a clear round in as well, especially as this trip will suit her much better than Bangor's two miles on Saturday, and Rule The Ocean has enough good efforts under her belt to give her a chance, but ASK CATKIN looks dangerously well handicapped and under what should be ideal conditions, is worth a try after a wind operation.
  1. Ask Catkin
  2. Overawed
  3. Rule The Ocean
