Forecasts

Purple Lily (5/2), Tannola (11/4), Glor Tire (7/2), Mayfair (9/2), Kalispera (7/1), I'll Rise (18/1), The Crafty Girl (33/1), Francoise Ardy (125/1)

Lots of potential on show but Jim Bolder's progressive Teofilo filly GLOR TIRE sets a good standard on the form of her recent Leopardstown second so gets the vote. Aidan O'Brien's Justify newcomer Mayfair rates a big threat though while fellow debutantes Tannola and Purple Lily also need considering in an intriguing juvenile maiden.
