Forecasts

Mi Laddo (2/1), Kimberley (7/2), Darkest Day (6/1), Sad Eyed Dylan (13/2), Eventful (13/2), Uncle O (17/2), Ronde De Nuit (9/1), Plenty Of Butty (16/1), Fanfan La Colmine (25/1), Johni Boxit (28/1), Rathnure Ranger (33/1), Lightning Bug (66/1)

Verdict

EVENTFUL looks potentially well treated based on Flat form and should be more at home under these conditions after a break, so she's fancied to improve enough to land a handicap that looks competitive for the grade. Recent winner Mi Laddo is an obvious danger, while Darkest Day also warrants respect.
