Forecasts

Radiator Springs (15/8), Shoda (15/8), Shadys Lady (5/2), Crystal Gold (7/2), Apples Jane (5/1), Likealightswitch (7/1), Hilltop Duchess (16/1), Jumbos Jet (80/1), Question Asked (100/1), Ina Mina (125/1), Baymount (125/1), Ballingurteen (150/1), Boston Breeze (150/1), Ballinaboola Gold (300/1), Madam Elle (300/1), Barrowline (300/1), Down Your Way (300/1), Del Boys Diva (300/1)

RADIATOR SPRINGS made a highly promising start when third in a big-field Naas novice last month and this daughter of Doyen gets a confident vote to add to her earlier points victory. Crystal Gold also has the form to play a part and is next on the list, while Shadys Lady, Likealightswitch and Apples Jane all need factoring in for place purposes.
