Forecasts

Sectarius (7/2), Water Nymph (9/2), Randall Poets Lass (11/2), Simpson's Paradox (6/1), Time Tells All (6/1), Highland Rahy (6/1), Toll Stone (13/2), Rick Dalton (17/2), Fashion Flair (9/1), Helter Skelter (14/1), Finsceal Go Deo (14/1), Sevensees (33/1), Limestone Red (50/1), Carrickfinn (150/1)

Lots with chances but WATER NYMPH just holds the edge on form and gets the vote from Navan-third Randall Poets Lass who rates a big threat. Sectarius and Time Tells All both bring solid credentials to the table too and need factoring into this open-looking maiden.
