Betting Forecast: 5-1 Al Suhail (GB), 6-1 D’Bai (IRE), 17-2 Silent Escape (IRE), 9-1 River Nymph (GB), Albasheer (IRE), 16-1 Ace Aussie (IRE), Baradar (IRE), 18-1 Fundamental (GB), 20-1 Matthew Flinders (GB), Symbolize (IRE), 22-1 Mums Tipple (IRE), With Thanks (IRE), 28-1 Tomfre (GB), 50-1 Snash (IRE), 300-1 Wonder Elmossman (IRE) Race Summary: SILENT ESCAPE faces her toughest test yet but she arrives firmly on the up and with few miles on the clock too so is fancied to make it 4-5 on her first go in listed company. Al Suhail and D’bai both represent the in-form Charlie Appleby yard and already have smart form in the book so look the two to give her most to do in that order.
