SANTORINI SUN's last couple of performances here suggest that she is more than capable of winning a race of this nature. Loudest Whisper is another who could go well based upon the pick of her form, which includes a second-placed finish at Galway last time. Others who merit consideration are Oromo, Attack At Dawn and Ozone.
Prediction : 1st Santorini Sun 2nd Loudest Whisper 3rd Attack At Dawn

ASSURANCE, who made her debut in a Group 1 in September, finished a close third in a similar event to this over C&D last month and she is clearly the one to beat. Cannoli is out of a Listed-winning mare and she is a newcomer who merits consideration, as are Noble Heritage and Vivandiere.
Prediction : 1st Assurance 2nd Cannoli 3rd Noble Heritage

NO TROUBLE got off the mark over an extended 1m2f here late last month and he will be hard to beat if reproducing that effort, despite a 3lb rise in the ratings. Everyhouronthehour is another recent course winner who has to be respected. Red Avenger, Only The Brave and Ballycaines all hit the crossbar last time and they could go well again.
Prediction : 1st No Trouble 2nd Everyhouronthehour 3rd Red Avenger

SLADE RUNNER put in a career-best performance to finish a close third here 10 days ago and wouldn't need to improve much in order to land the spoils. He ran on well for pressure that day and might be produced a bit earlier this time. Johan The Great displayed promise when third on handicap debut two weeks ago, while Adamaris, second on that occasion, is another to take seriously.
Prediction : 1st Slade Runner 2nd Johan The Great 3rd Adamaris

WHOAREYOUANYWAY took a big leap forward from his previous start when third over C&D 10 days ago and will take plenty of beating if performing to that sort of level once more. He might have been let in lightly off an opening handicap mark of 76, and a first-time tongue-tie could spark improvement. Enchanted One showed a nice attitude to strike two weeks ago and merits respect, while Lady Zell is another to note despite her high draw.
Prediction : 1st Whoareyouanyway 2nd Enchanted One 3rd Lady Zell

Royal Highness has the best form in the book but remains a maiden after seven starts, while Arnhem was a 50-1 fourth on debut over C&D last month and normal improvement should see him go close. However, it wouldn't be surprising if a newcomer took this, and Joseph O'Brien's ANNIE B could be the one. A half-sister to 10 winners including the smart Flaming Spear, she receives a tentative vote to strike.
Prediction : 1st Annie B 2nd Royal Highness 3rd Arnhem

20:15 Dundalk

WAR HERO has been knocking on the door and can reverse placings with Dash D'Or, who got the better of a short-head decision when they clashed over track and trip last month. Alfredo Arcano is 6lb higher than when taking this last season but offered enough encouragement here last time to suggest he could make the frame, while it is interesting that Yuften drops back in trip following some fine recent efforts over a mile.
Prediction : 1st War Hero 2nd Alfredo Arcano 3rd Yuften

20:45 Dundalk

TRIBAL PATH built on some solid placed form when dropping back in trip to score over course and distance earlier this month and the experienced campaigner appears capable of following up off just a 4lb higher mark. Ascot Dreamer didn't beat Ticks The Boxes (second) by much when they met over the track and trip on the same card and both warrant plenty of respect, while Comhghairdeas goes back in distance after scoring over 7f here last week.
Prediction : 1st Tribal Path 2nd Ascot Dreamer 3rd Ticks The Boxes
