Forecasts

Mirazur West (8/11), Foxy Girl (4/1), Will The Wise (6/1), Pinot Gris (17/2), Dancingondaceiling (12/1), Harsh (16/1), Maidenstreetprince (20/1), Lady Bresil (66/1), Run For Harry (100/1), Pride Of Place (100/1), Ask The Bookie (150/1)

A useful maiden in which MIRAZUR WEST is narrowly preferred to Naas runner-up Foxy Girl. Dancingondaceiling shaped well when fourth in that same Naas contest and is another likely to be on the premises.
