Forecasts

Glan (5/2), Castra Vetera (3/1), Jelona (10/3), More Info (6/1), Some Might Say (7/1), Hollow Moon (16/1), Nurse Mairead (25/1), Shes Some Doll (50/1), Come Home Katie (50/1), Carrigeen Lotus (66/1), Milalee (66/1)

JELONA shaped well when ridden in rear before progress to finish fifth of 18 in a Listed bumper at Gowran Park when last seen in October. The daughter of Milan can improve to land the spoils in the closer here at the expense of the Willie Mullins-trained Some Might Say who will improve for her debut at Naas last month. Debutantes' Glan for the Gordon Elliott/ Jamie Codd combination and Castra Vetera for Joseph O'Brien appear the biggest dangers.
