Forecasts

Aruntothequeen (11/4), Catchabird (7/2), Walk In The Sea (7/2), Clody Diamond (11/2), Beautiful Chaos (6/1), Missus Beeton (13/2), Rockstown Girl (15/2), Mi Lucky Cailin (10/1), Patty O'Farrell (18/1), Stiltellinemnuttin (20/1), Gangster Granny (28/1), Ringcreevy Diamond (66/1)

Verdict

An open race in which the suggestion is MISSUS BEETON, who might come on again for her recent Cork fourth and is nicely treated on the pick of last year's form. Catchabird and Beautiful Chaos arrive on the back of good runner-up efforts and may give Philip Dempsey's mare most to do.

  1. MISSUS BEETON (IRE)
  2. CATCHABIRD (IRE)
  3. BEAUTIFUL CHAOS (IRE)
