Forecasts

Pietralunga (10/11), Moonlight Escape (11/4), Cool Saint (5/1), Trumps Ace (10/1), Hiupinthesky (22/1), Miss Echrad (33/1), Belle West (50/1), Thatwasthen (50/1), Oscar Madness (66/1), Castaliera (66/1), Georgia Grace (66/1), Bert Leaf (66/1), Devine Star (80/1), Allez Amour (100/1), Golden Pockets (100/1), Queen Barack (100/1)

Big outsiders Casteliera, Golden Pockets and Miss Echrad could possibly cut out the running here in the early stages of the opening contest with Bert Leaf and Hiupinthesky chasing behind. Impressive French-import PIETRALUNGA should confirm favouritism here for trainer-Willie Mullins with Moonlight Escape, Cool Saint and the interesting Thatwasthen battling for the minors.
