Forecasts

Jo's Secret (15/8), Early Bird (2/1), Tricksofthetrade (5/2), Cinnabar Moth (4/1), Nella Fantasia (15/2), Alaskan View (15/2), Phiddlesticks (22/1), Watch Your Step (22/1), Ill Raise A Glass (40/1), Shake The Bag (125/1), Ginny Weasley (150/1)

JO'S SECRET showed plenty on her Rules debut when fifth in a Leopardstown bumper earlier this month and with improvement on the cards, Tony Martin's 5-y-o can get the better of Early Bird, who was sent off favourite and finished a place ahead of the selection that day. Debutantes Tricksofthetrade and Cinnabar Moth both tick plenty of boxes on paper, so they can fight out minor honours.
