Forecasts

Where's Bunny (5/2), Alexharwill (7/2), Cottie (6/1), Capture The Drama (15/2), Johanna Yeats (15/2), Hilltop Supreme (8/1), Fly De Megaudais (10/1), Ballard Prince (14/1), Cluan Dara (28/1)

WHERE'S BUNNY is holding her form well and followed up at Tramore in the style of one who looks up to completing the hat-trick. Cottie and Johanna Yeats are feared most.
