Forecasts

Malone Road (5/6), Mt Leinster (6/5), Mam Trasna (10/1), The Dude Abides (16/1), Highstreet Roller (20/1), Clancypantz (33/1), Felicity's Choice (33/1), Farney Villa (50/1), Castle Valley (100/1)

Verdict

A duel between the Mullins and Elliott camps, seemingly. Mt Leinster was very impressive in scoring at Ballinrobe on debut and should go well here on a sounder surface but the expensively acquired MALONE ROAD also looked good in his recent Down Royal success, where he made his own running. Jamie Codd's mount earns a slender call, with the betting perhaps more likely to separate them. Newcomer Highstreet Roller won her only point-to-point start and could run well.
