Forecasts

Erins Benefit (13/8), Cottie (2/1), Betty Zane (5/1), Shanacoole Dasy (5/1), Millies Mite (12/1), Glory Breeze (14/1), Yeat's Encore (28/1), Can U Believe (33/1), Dawn Of The West (40/1), Lough Manor (50/1), Belville Babe (50/1), Ourlady (50/1), Minnies Exhibition (66/1), Corrigaleen (80/1), Future Glory (150/1), Gentle Snoopy (200/1), Dardedze (200/1), Boola Belle (200/1)

BETTY ZANE should have more to come on the back of her encouraging hurdle debut effort in the spring and may ensure that Erins Benefit's wait for a first hurdle success goes on a bit longer. Cottie and Shanacoole Dasy, who shaped nicely at Down Royal recently, are others likely to be involved in the finish.
