Forecasts

Gotta Getaway (3/1), Moonball (3/1), Elegant Lass (7/2), Immortality (6/1), Aunty Audrey (13/2), Bridge Native (7/1), She Tops The Lot (10/1), Dandjira (12/1), Getaway Glenda (16/1), Theatre Run (20/1), Wild Desire (20/1), Iknowwhereiamnow (28/1), Majority Share (40/1), Gimligonnabelucky (100/1)

ELEGANT LASS went down only to a subsequent winner over C&D last month and this in-form mare still looks ahead of her mark. Moonball rates a live danger after a win and a second at Kilbeggan this summer, while Gordon Elliott's Immortality appeals as one who could improve in handicaps.
