Forecasts

Corey Lord (11/8), Close Enough (11/4), Pour Pavore (9/2), Along Long Story (7/1), Lyla Garrity (15/2), Inchidaly Copper (11/1), Alexharwill (12/1), Rwegoinhigh (22/1), Sumtinboutporter (33/1), Stormy Native (40/1), California King (66/1), Sweet Scotch (80/1), Mauras Way (150/1)

Verdict

CLOSE ENOUGH rates the form pick and looks to have been found a good opportunity to open her account in a race where plenty have little to recommend them. Pour Pavore looks the one to give her most to do and rates next best ahead of Along Long Story who could play a big part if first-time blinkers have the desired effect.
