Forecasts

Chicago Lightening (5/2), My Eyes Adore You (4/1), Grizabella (4/1), Lopes Gold (15/2), Ottey (9/1), Soilse (10/1), Wild Eyed Girl (14/1), Un Bacio Ancora (16/1), Gran Roque (20/1), Wiggle Room (20/1), Saffies Glory (22/1), Aratori (25/1), Mrs Shelby (33/1), Excel Rocket (50/1), Cathy Jane (80/1), Wow (125/1), Lisamaria (150/1)

MY EYES ADORE YOU holds the edge on form so is taken to open her account on the back of her good seventh in handicap company at Naas. Sligo-third Grizabella seems sure to have a say too though, with both Chicago Lightening and Wild Eyed Girl appealing as the pick of the remainder for minor honours.
