Forecasts

Are You Around (10/11), Fraher Field (9/4), Sellerna Bay (4/1), Clarnagh Maid (8/1), Inver Bay (33/1), Nugentstown Sue (50/1), Don't Want To Know (50/1), White Meadow (80/1), Keep The Head (100/1), Living My Life (150/1)

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and this could be fought out by two of the newcomers, with preference for Willie Mullins' Walk In The Park filly ARE YOU AROUND over Gordon Elliott's mare Clarnagh Maid. Fraher Field appeals as the pick of those with previous experience and can take minor honours.
