Forecasts

Gloriously Glam (3/1), Gangsta Man (4/1), Agouti Bear (5/1), Gazelle D'or (11/2), Smoke Them Out (7/1), Kodilicious (15/2), Moonhall Church (8/1), Withoutfurtherado (14/1), Kurrawa (20/1), Sunriseontheboyne (22/1)

Jessica Harrington saddles three here and her GLORIOUSLY GLAM is taken to come out on top on the back of her very good Curragh second last time out. Gangsta Man's recent form is on the up so he could emerge as the main danger, atlhough Gazelle d'Or and Agouti Bear are also worthy of consideration. Moonhall Church completes the shortlist.
