Vocatus has been running well without quite getting there including behind stable companion Mother Vincent at the Curragh last week. He'll be winning soon but the concession of 5lb to MAGIC FOUNTAIN may just prove beyond him. The Ballydoyle filly looks to be on the upgrade and didn't get the run of the race at Dundalk last time so this looks her chance. Rosy Life looks best of the remainder though she's by Australia and was staying on over a mile at the Curragh last week so this looks on the short side.
