Forecasts

Shoney (2/1), Emerald Harmony (9/4), Aurora Nova (10/3), Moral Turpitude (9/2), Where's Clare (18/1)

EMERALD HARMONY gets the vote on the back of her good fourth in a big field at Cork last Friday. Billy Lee's mount Shoney is better than she showed on her handicap debut at the Curragh and can bounce back to form and provide the chief threat ahead Aurora Nova.
