Forecasts

Law Ella (10/11), Harmonya Maker (7/4), Battling Bessie (10/3), Ginnets Girl (4/1), Mansoline (25/1), Fortunefavorsdbold (28/1), Broomfield Bijou (33/1), Annie Bella (50/1), Grace Faraday (66/1), Zingara Lass (125/1), Bingo Queen (150/1), Fortunate Lady (150/1), Emily's Fortune (200/1), Maud Ban (200/1), Celina John (200/1), De Skutty Wren (200/1), Annie Merrick (200/1)

LAW ELLA looked a winner in waiting in this sphere when runner-up at Galway on her recent debut and this useful bumper scorer gets a confident vote. Gordon Elliott saddles two likely sorts in Harmonya Maker and Sligo second Ginnets Girl and they can chase home Gavin Cromwell's promising mare in that order.
