Forecasts

Rosscarbery (11/10), Golden Lyric (5/1), Maristella (11/2), Cristal Clere (17/2), City Angel (12/1), Search For Thestar (12/1), Dowhatyouwant (14/1), Ballysax (20/1), Nevada Brave (33/1), Ballycommon Chapel (40/1), Abu Hazem (40/1), Tinkiewinkie (200/1), Whosegottheshekles (200/1), Absberg (300/1), Forever My Girl (300/1)

GOLDEN LYRIC arrives on the back of a good third here so Jessica Harrington's fairly useful filly gets the nod in her bid to open her account. Johnny Murtagh's well-related newcomer Maristella is feared most, especially if the market talks in her favour, although Rosscarbery has the form to play a part if bringing her A-game after seven months off the track.
