Forecasts

Kilbunny Pontic (6/4), Sainte Dona (3/1), Howaya C D And E (11/2), Purse Price (13/2), Time To Rocco (10/1), Hazelhatch Lady (12/1), Cassarina Gold (14/1), Balum (50/1), Lady Bodeen (66/1), Whose A Diva (80/1), Greatmindstinkalik (100/1), Maimie's Magic (100/1), Kanors Girl (125/1)

KILBUNNY PONTIC didn't progress in bumpers but can do now jumping, so she's the suggestion following an encouraging hurdling debut at Listowel. Sainte Dona and Rules-newcomer Purse Price head the dangers.
