Forecasts

Whispering Hopes (3/1), Boujee (11/2), Walk On Annilog (13/2), Nutbush City (7/1), Mile End (8/1), Eastern Wind (9/1), Nothing Hectic (11/1), Teenage Kiss (12/1), Lady Bee Great (14/1), Strollaway (14/1), Chocolate Truffles (20/1), Derreyah (20/1), Toor Idaho (66/1), Jaadil (125/1), Conflict Lady (150/1), Not Even Maybe (150/1)

EASTERN WIND was sure to have been placed had she not been brought down at Navan on her hurdles bow in March so this recent Flat winner could be the answer in an ordinary maiden. Whispering Hopes and Walk On Annilog head the dangers.
