Forecasts
Ravenhill Road (5/2), Nesterenko (5/2), Craiganboy (11/2), Charmix (13/2), Gold Opera (7/1), Justforjames (10/1), Lough Derg Jewel (16/1), Newberry New (25/1)
There are 'ifs' and 'buts' about the vast majority of those declared, not least the upped-in-trip Ravenhill Road so this is clearly a race in which to adopt a cautious approach. Charmix could be on the way back for Lucinda Russell, although we'll know more after this particular race while Justforjames would've been of more interest without a 3lb weights rise. The in-form Venetia Williams took this race in 2018 with Didero Vallis, but her representative this time around (Nesterenko) isn't convincing as an eight-race chasing maiden. Therefore, for very small stakes we'll chance the 2018 runner-up GOLD OPERA who is slowly easing back to a more workable mark.
- Gold Opera
- Justforjames
- Craiganboy
