Forecasts

Mollys Mango (5/4), Whatcouldhavebeen (9/4), Belle The Lioness (10/3), Double Pink (12/1), Good As Hell (28/1)

Verdict

MOLLYS MANGO won in the style of a useful novice at Thurles and can follow up with the step up to 2½m promising to suit. The reappearing Belle The Lioness should find this a bit easier than the mares' novice at the Cheltenham Festival and is second choice ahead of Whatcouldhavebeen.
