Forecasts

Knockanard Lady (6/4), Roccos Inspiration (15/8), Parvos (4/1), Workforadime (6/1), Pure Notions (6/1), Mary Cassatt (15/2), Bint Freya (12/1), Seventy Eight Team (14/1), Iriskana (25/1), C'est Rien (40/1), Lucky Viv (50/1), Weir Lane (80/1), Amazing Amy (80/1), Kathy Choice (125/1), Close Enough (150/1), Irish Artist (150/1), Thatsjessie (300/1), Twolittlegirls (300/1), Cooltubrid Hope (300/1)

KNOCKANARD LADY was reportedly found to be in season when disappointing at Cork and is worth another chance as she sets the standard. Roccos Inspiration and Mary Cassatt are the dangers, although Pure Notions would be an obvious contender for Willie Mullins if getting a run.
