Forecasts

Peaceful (8/11), St Clerans (11/4), Zoom Zoom Babe (7/1), Legal Thriller (10/1), Snow (14/1), Lilli Milena (14/1), Pineapple Express (33/1), Merroir (50/1), Indian Lilac (66/1), Watergrange Fairy (80/1), Thegoodmind (100/1)

PEACEFUL can build on a promising 3¾L defeat on debut by landing the spoils in the opener. The daughter of Galileo ran well in defeat at Leopardstown in August and appears to be the yards first-string in terms of jockey bookings. Stablemate Snow is likely to improve on her disappointing debut at Cork in August and can emerge as the biggest danger. Zoom Zoom Babe looks capable of hitting the frame while newcomers Lilli Milena and Indian Lilac should not be disregarded.
