Forecasts

Star Of State (1/3), Pink Venom (4/1), This That (11/2), Someday Somewhere (9/1), Not You Too (12/1), El Domino (22/1), Whosinterviewinwho (25/1), Magma King (25/1), Scotty Cameron (50/1), Dear Theodosia (66/1), Little Diva (100/1), Siege Of Tyre (150/1)

STAR OF STATE made a promising debut when runner-up at Fairyhouse last week, beaten only by one with the benefit of experience, and she can build on that effort to open her account. Pink Venom took a big step forward from her first outing and is feared most, with newcomer This That completing the shortlist.
