Forecasts

Shadows Of My Mind (9/4), Al Arrivee (9/4), Liss Eile (3/1), Kilda Kelle (7/2), Tangara Bay (4/1), Cool Summer (8/1), Montana Blue (9/1), Morissette (12/1), Dollymount (14/1), Lady Hotham (14/1), Graigstar (16/1), Hillhead Runner (22/1), Queen Of Chenab (28/1), Absolute Bliss (80/1), A Quaint Gal (125/1)

The vote goes to newcomer SHADOWS OF MY MIND, who represents a yard with a 22% strike rate in Irish bumpers in recent years and this filly, who fetched €62,000 last year, is a half-sister to bumper/hurdles winner Shelikesthelights. Al Arrivee is another likely-looking debutante for whom market support would be an ominous sign for the others, and she is feared most ahead of Tangara Bay, who is the most appealing of those with experience on the back of her promising debut second at Ballinrobe.
