Forecasts

Trapalanda (4/5), Strolling (4/1), Young Churchill (9/2), Saol Gaelach (15/2), Timurshah (15/2), Il Sovrano (10/1), Fiveonefive (16/1), If You Let Me (22/1), Lagoon Nebula (33/1), Colourful Lil (200/1)

It could be a case of third time lucky for TRAPALANDA, who has shown plenty of ability in finishing runner-up in maidens at the Curragh and Roscommon. Strolling will be a big threat if she puts her best foot forward, while Timurshah is third choice. Il Sovrano should pick up a race in due course and If You Let Me can be expected to leave last week's belated Flat debut form well behind in time.
