Forecasts

Chestnutter (9/4), Butterfly Island (11/4), De Vega's Warrior (11/2), Slamadoor (8/1), Padjoy (17/2), Cavalry Charge (12/1), Lottie Dend (12/1), Cedro (22/1), Basia (25/1), Red Linn (50/1), Ko Samui (100/1), Our Louise (150/1)

BUTTERFLY ISLAND shaped with plenty of encouragement when third at Navan on debut in April, likely to have got much closer to the front pair had she not been hampered down on the inside, and she shades the vote over Chestnutter, who also showed plenty first-time up at Fairyhouse.
