Forecasts

Betty Dutton (2/1), Howaya C D And E (3/1), In A Nice Way (6/1), She's Tobias (13/2), Beyond Ambitious (9/1), Elusive Sea (10/1), Magic Conqueror (12/1), Dinero Falso (16/1), Hi Ski (20/1), Lovango (25/1), Crossgaleschicflic (25/1), Drumderry Harlem (33/1), Set My Love Free (50/1), Truckers Angel (50/1), Gaudriole (100/1), Elusive Nicole (100/1), Ramble On Muller (125/1), Coco Lightning (200/1), Wee Valerie (200/1)

Several of these are open to improvement, not least SHE'S TOBIAS, who has shown plenty of ability in a trio of maiden hurdles at Kilbeggan. It may well be that she will come into her own when going down the handicap route, but there was sufficient promise in her latest effort to suggest that a maiden of this nature could be within reach. Betty Dutton is feared greatly on the back of her Listowel third last week, while Elusive Sea, Howaya C D And E and In A Nice Way are others to consider.
