Forecasts

New York Style (8/13), Cash The Cheque (7/2), Fairyland Opera (6/1), Sarrealta (16/1), Lucky Storm (18/1), Cailin Aibrean (20/1), Claddagh Princess (20/1), Red Night Sky (20/1), Moonshine Girl (22/1), Dear Ryta (25/1), Cleopatra's Needle (25/1), Flier (28/1), Slamadoor (28/1), Ar Nos Na Gaoithe (33/1), Milan Dollar Lady (66/1), Finnicky Filly (80/1), Mabel In May (100/1), Annie Questions (150/1), Strawberry Diamond (200/1)

NEW YORK STYLE looked promising in a bumper and her latest effort, when fourth at Naas, was a step forward from her hurdling debut, so she's fancied to open her account returning from almost 5 months off. Cash The Cheque is the biggest danger on form although Fairyland Opera is expected to improve from her hurdling debut.
