Forecast Prices: Kalsman 3/1, Whispering Willow 4/1, Sea Of Doubt 11/4, King Gris 12/1, Doctor Confusion 7/1, Feet On The Ground 12/1, Pralognan 10/1, Quirt Evans 33/1, Thirsty Work 16/1, Cherry Red 50/1, Pillartou 14/1, Fizzle Rock 50/1
oddschecker Verdict
The fitting of a tongue-tie was instrumental in an improved effort from WHISPERING WILLOW over hurdles at Down Royal three weeks ago and a step forward from that might suffice, with the application retained for her return to chasing. Kalsman has been consistent but hard to win with of late. However, he goes well here and should be a key player in this company. Doctor Confusion and King Gris are others capable of being on the premises.
Prediction: 1st Whispering Willow, 2nd Kalsman, 3rd Doctor Confusion
