Forecasts

Lunar Display (1/2), Sweet Street (9/2), Cottie (9/2), Cute Cherry (5/1), Rebel Rose (17/2), Choir Practice (12/1), Divas Doyen (12/1), Delias Pet (28/1), California Breeze (28/1), Cot Knapping (40/1), Call Me Tina (50/1), Flibinight (50/1), Werenotallowed (50/1), My Friend Aoife (66/1), Hophornbeam (66/1), Mahlers Glory (66/1), Rags Kitten (80/1), One More Lass (100/1), Deyforgotme (125/1)

LUNAR DISPLAY is more than good enough to win a race like this based on her placed efforts on her last 2 starts so she gets the vote. Cottie is a potentially dangerous opponent having switched to Henry de Bromhead ahead of her hurdle debut. Rebel Rose's bumper win suggests she should also be up to making her presence felt in a race like this now hurdling.
