Verdict

A huge field but only a handful make any serious appeal. Preference is for OTSANA, who shaped with considerable promise when fifth at the Curragh on debut last month and now drops to 6f. She can get the better of Saint Agatha, who is yet to progress from her debut, but a first-time tongue tie could be just what's required. Noble Irish and Inform are newcomers representing powerful connections so they complete the shortlist.

16	Showed plenty of promise when runner-up on debut at the Curragh last summer but hasn't built on that in 3 subsequent runs, most recently when eleventh of 12 on handicap debut back there in May. Better anticipated back in maiden company after a 4-month break. First-time tongue tie on. 2nd Pick 16 Saint Agatha (Ire) Jockey: G. M. Ryan Trainer: J. A. Stack, Ireland J: G. M. Ryan T: J. A.
