Forecasts

Macinamillion (7/4), Notturno (4/1), Givemefive (7/1), Lilac Lady (15/2), Status Green (10/1), Ahsuruknowurself (10/1), Bright N Shine (12/1), Susiesparkle (14/1), Night Moon (16/1), Cherokee Run (16/1), Tasmanian Girl (25/1), Stepdance (28/1), Lynskey (40/1), Harrison Meadows (50/1)

MACINAMILLION is taken to build on last week's Navan second and provide Gavin Cromwell with a second successive win in this contest. Billy Lee's mount Lilac Lady left the impression she should have finished closer when fourth at Cork last time and is second choice ahead of Johnny Murtagh's Givemefive, who may benefit from this longer trip.
