Forecasts

Norwigi (4/1), She's Commanche (4/1), Seangoell (11/2), I'll Be That Lady (13/2), Echoes Of Family (7/1), Chelseas Friend (15/2), Daphne Moon (10/1), That's Lifebuoy (11/1), Shanavoun Lady (16/1), Feyan (18/1), La Chanteuse (20/1), Mamaslittlestar (40/1), Keep The Peace (50/1)

Verdict

CHELSEAS FRIEND bettered her hurdles form on her first try chasing at Wexford early last month, and with this step back up in trip sure to suit, she could be the answer now returned to a handicap. Echoes of Family and Norwigi are a couple of others to take seriously.
