Forecasts

La Prima Donna (8/11), Our Miss Power (16/5), Mi Lighthouse (7/2), Lizrona (14/1), Moon Eagle (16/1), Hunting Goodwill (20/1), Delightfantastic (33/1), Ma Hoey (33/1), Barely Made It (50/1), Hannah Wells (66/1), Goulane Grace (80/1), Midnight Gold (100/1), Lily Of Dromard (125/1), Lonesome Day (125/1), Evening Verse (250/1), Kilrush Scorpion (250/1), Courtbrack Lady (250/1)

LA PRIMA DONNA is taken to confirm last month's Clonmel form with stablemate Mi Lighthouse and get off the mark at the second time of asking for new connections. Moon Eagle was a promising fourth on her debut last spring and could also play a part if primed for this return.
