Forecasts

Mumayaz (7/2), Shanghai Dragon (4/1), Wayne R Walker (11/2), Princess Rajj (7/1), Purple Gown (8/1), Lexi's Dream (10/1), Volarossa (12/1), Elizabeth's Pride (14/1), Lamprog (16/1), Bayou Belle (20/1), Lottie Dend (20/1), Little Queenie (22/1), Walking On Clouds (33/1), Wee Winnie (33/1), Recyclable (40/1), Dahomey (50/1), Threescoreandten (50/1)

SHANGHAI DRAGON was doing some good late work when fourth in a maiden at Navan last time, so better can be expected now returned to 7f off a reasonable opening mark. She's marginally preferred to fellow handicap debutant Volarossa, with Mumayaz also on the radar on the back of a good effort at Killarney 15 days ago.
