Forecasts

Vadsa Queen (7/4), Royal Hollow (9/4), Russellsbelle (9/2), Marvel Star (11/1), Ocoloko (12/1), Jukebox Jenny (20/1), Knockaneleigh Girl (22/1), Hold On A Minute (25/1), Vicky Vallencourt (25/1), Shanlaylin (33/1), Fortunatlee (50/1), Hopkins (50/1), Tick Tick Boom (100/1)

VADSA QUEEN shaped well at Punchestown last April before a disappointing run and, while she's been off since, her stable is adept at getting one ready after an absence, so she's preferred to Russellsbelle, who ran well in a novice hurdle at Tipperary recently. Shanlaylin looks the pick of the newcomers.
