Forecasts

Sneddy Eddie (5/1), Barnhill Rose (6/1), Calamint (13/2), Vikki Wall (13/2), Super Cub (7/1), Lisamaria (9/1), On Our Radar (10/1), Breezy Zoff (12/1), River Derwent (16/1), Designer Cailin (16/1), What Adaay (18/1), Cherry Pink (20/1), Bear Profit (20/1), Deuteronomy (22/1), Jazz Dreamers (25/1), Queen Mab (40/1), Penguin Island (50/1), Kami (50/1)

The vote goes to SNEDDY EDDIE, who caught the eye when finishing well after encountering traffic problems at Sligo recently and this step back up in trip looks a good move. Calamint improved form out of the blue on debut for this yard at Naas where she landed a big-field handicap in good style. The handicapper took a dim view of that and raised her a whopping 12 lb but she is feared nonetheless. Cherry Pink is third choice, while Barnhill Rose is also shortlisted.
