Forecasts

Flemencello (5/2), Hi Stranger (3/1), Mollys Glory (4/1), Battling Bessie (8/1), Champagne Problem (17/2), Banntown Girl (9/1), Memorable Daise (11/1), Quiet Escape (16/1), Kilbarry Chloe (16/1), Miranda Priestly (20/1), Outback Flyer (40/1), Monishter Are Mwee (66/1), Kingston Retreat (125/1)

HI STRANGER displayed an impressive turn of foot when following up at Down Royal a month ago and though she must concede weight all round as a result, she may well be up to the task. Mollys Glory was a bit disappointing on hurdles debut but is a big player on last season's bumper form, while Flemencello could take a big jump forward.
