Forecasts

Nirodha (3/1), Rome Imperial (4/1), Koola Buala (4/1), Al Rasmah (9/2), Tundra (15/2), Roca Magica (11/1), Eponina (12/1)

KOOLA BUALA was running in some competitive Irish maidens last season and she has since changed hands at the sales. She starts off life for new connections in a much less competitive race than those she was contesting in Ireland so makes plenty of appeal. Tundra could spring a surprise to take a hand. Nirodha can't be dismissed either.
