Forecasts

Shadows Of My Mind (2/5), Sing My Story (11/8), Richieandsams Lady (16/5), Ourdaywithfriends (7/2), Subpoena (8/1), Isthatrightkatie (17/2), Rosie Brown (25/1), Champagne Melanie (33/1), Not Leaving Yet (50/1)

All roads lead to SHADOWS OF MY MIND, who was beaten a whisker on debut at Tipperary in October and she is confidently expected to go one better here on debut for the Willie Mullins yard. Sing My Story earns the vote for forecast purposes ahead of Richieandsams Lady.
