Forecasts

Toy (8/11), Perfect Thunder (5/2), Ha Ha Ha (6/1), Karkiyna (9/1), Grian An Tsamhra (16/1), Princess Azure (22/1), Blue Peak (33/1), Artistic Rhythm (33/1), Chatterbox (50/1), Feature This (80/1), Shamrock Sprig (100/1), El Credo (100/1), Try Hard (125/1), Theresathought (125/1), Scarriff (125/1), Not Amused (150/1), Miranda Priestly (200/1), Lady Arwen (250/1), Miss Violet (300/1), Lily Bianca (300/1)

A full sister to connections' high-class Gleneagles, TOY shaped with plenty of promise behind one boasting previous experience when runner-up in a big-field C&D maiden back in October and, with progress highly likely now embaring on her 3-y-o career, she can come out on top. Perfect Thunder also shaped well as a juvenile and is feared. Whilst Jessica Harrington's pair Ha Ha Ha and Princess Azure also appeal in their own right.
