Forecasts

Nt Field Minnesota (4/9), Milanaway (13/2), Grannys Yaris (7/1), Jekiki (10/1), Only A Dollar (12/1), Lady Danu (14/1), Indigo Mist (14/1), Ballerina Boxer (14/1), Late Vocation (18/1), Doyen Lady (25/1), Yorkshire Escape (33/1), Where's Teddy (50/1), Ms Merlot (50/1), The Coach Lady (66/1), Celestrial Diamond (66/1), Ceis Charraigin (100/1)

The eyes are immediately drawn to NT FIELD MINNESOTA, who opened her account in points at the fourth attempt when last seen in April and confidence behind her in the betting on this Rules debut would look highly significant. Jekiki was too free last time but may yet build on her encouraging introduction at Limerick and she gets the nod ahead of Grannys Yaris for forecast purposes.
