Adelaide River heads this 23-runner field at the Curragh over ten furlongs on good ground, rated a pound clear of Eastwatch and narrowly ahead of the wider field, giving her a slender edge on paper in what is nonetheless a highly competitive affair. Eastwatch represents the most immediate danger, with Ribee and Amadeus Mozart also capable of making their presence felt in what looks an open contest. The confidence in this selection is modest, and any of those four could reasonably emerge, but Adelaide River's rating advantage, however slim, tilts the case in her favour. Adelaide River is the selection.
