Verdict
NOTORIOUSLY RISKY is 0-10 but has been placed six times and ran a fine race from her lowest-ever mark at Cork last week so can finally get off the mark. Mickey The Steel has a similar profile and his recent close fourth behind Red Wasp at Down Royal could be boosted in the previous race. Swift Flight's overall form puts him right in the picture and he didn't get the clearest of runs in a big field over 6f at the Curragh last time. Even Flow was in the front rank for a long way in that latter event and will be suited by dropping back in trip but Elanora has never raced over the minimum.
