Forecasts

Stella Alpina (4/6), Shadow Of The Moon (16/5), Viamonte (7/2), Quatrain (13/2), Bennu (33/1), Skippinandajumpin (40/1), Harry's Magic (125/1), Three Sixteen (150/1), Heir Island (250/1)

STELLA ALPINA almost opened her account at Cork a fortnight ago and looks the one to beat in the opener. Viamonte and Shadow of The Moon rate the principal dangers.
