Forecasts

Reinforce (10/3), Meggy Moo (7/2), Camilla Gherardini (4/1), Lasmuigh (5/1), Kodi Noir (9/1), Lazer Port (10/1), Ooh La Belle (18/1), Lady Skipper (20/1), Palace Gardens (22/1), Fendi (33/1)

CAMILLA GHERARDINI had little chance with a well-handicapped rival at Sligo 10 days ago but it was still a sound effort and she now looks well treated herself from the same mark. Lasmuigh and Reinforce head the opposition.
