Forecasts

White Caviar (5/2), Extensio (10/3), Noble Crusade (7/1), In From The Cold (15/2), El Tren (15/2), Zuhra (9/1), Star Official (9/1), Alfalfa (14/1), Darraby (16/1), Zoffanien (16/1), Gonetomillgrove (16/1), Malayan (20/1), Persian Queen (25/1), Big Kitten (25/1), Lofoten (33/1), Active Duty (40/1), Global Energy (50/1), Missing Matron (66/1), Father Ailbe (100/1)

There's surely more to come from last month's Listowel maiden winner WHITE CAVIAR. The runner-up won next time, while the third also scored over hurdles recently, so the form has been boosted and an opening handicap in the low-80s could underestimate her. Billy Lee takes over in the saddle on Extensio and this in-form 5-y-o may give the selection most to do ahead of last week's Killarney scorer Star Official.
