Forecasts

La Note Verte (7/4), Vicar Street (7/2), Avondale (5/1), Emily Love (13/2), Sysko (17/2), Timeless Treaty (9/1), Sticktotheplan (22/1), Pour One More (25/1)

LA NOTE VERTE is going from strength to strength and fancied to make it 3-3 over hurdles on the back of her impressive Roscommon victory. Gordon Elliott's thriving Emily Love rates a big danger to Willie Mullins' mare in her bid for a five-timer, while her stablemate Timeless Treaty also needs factoring in along with Avondale and Vicar Street.
