Forecasts

Happy Henry (10/3), Harry's Hill (4/1), Bold Optimist (4/1), Mary Shoelaces (5/1), Arctic Steps (8/1), Ballysax Lil' Mick (9/1), Soulful Diva (12/1), Surpass And Shine (12/1), Kiss Don't Tell (14/1), Lady Landhort (40/1), Heart Of Eternity (50/1), Pure Valour (100/1)

Verdict

BOLD OPTIMIST was back to his best when runner-up at Naas last time and a repeat of that effort should see him go close. C&D specialist Mary Shoelaces beat Harry's Hill here last month and both should be in the mix again.

  1. BOLD OPTIMIST (IRE)
  2. MARY SHOELACES (IRE)
  3. HARRY'S HILL
