Forecasts

Ciao Bella (11/8), Annieguire (16/5), April's Moon (7/2), Fairy Orchard (5/1), Clonmoyle (7/1), Jacks Touch (12/1), Lady Lottie (22/1), Justwest (25/1), Aspen Fior (25/1), Sojouner Truth (33/1), Midnight Mission (33/1), Mourne Mist (33/1), Shiroccoville (40/1), Midway To Getaway (50/1), Gwanyugudting (125/1), Amoret (150/1), Artizarra (150/1)

Not a strong race by any means, with the vote going to CIAO BELLA in the anticipation she bounces back to the level displayed when placed twice during the autumn. Annieguire and April's Moon are the obvious threats unless there's confidence behind a newcomer.
