Forecasts

Tyson (3/1), Portarlington (7/2), Gortmore Lady (4/1), Order Of The Dance (9/2), Annie Agnew (6/1), Look Dont Touch (11/1), Halla Paroiste (22/1), Mystic Milly (33/1), Flash Collonges (40/1)

GORTMORE LADY signalled she is ready to go in on the back of a very good Tipperary fourth so looks the way to go in this open handicap. Fellow in-form maiden Look Dont Touch is next on the list with Portarlington, Annie Agnew and Tyson all in the mix too.
