Forecasts

Coole Og (4/6), Steel Queen (3/1), Kilbarry Lilac (4/1), Rathgearan (6/1), Knockwilliambridge (15/2), Young Leya (14/1), Themunsterexpress (20/1), Miss Fanta (40/1), Now We Know (50/1), Sassy Sara (66/1), One Over The Top (66/1), Street Fighter (66/1), Waitillnextweek (100/1), Fairwood Lingo (150/1)

COOLE OG is a well-bred Willie Mullins representative who should have no trouble making a winning debut in a decidedly weak contest, so she's an obvious choice. Steel Queen is the pick of the remainder on the back of a mildly encouraging start, while Kilbarry Lilac has a reasonable pedigree, so she could take a hand if she has the requisite pace/experience first time out.
