Willie Mullins holds a strong hand with exciting French import Elimay and the ultra-consistent Good Thyne Tara. However, it is his top-class mare LIMINI who earns the vote despite some below-par performances lately. This represents a drop in class and the allowances have been kind to her. Jessica Harrington has a good record in this but Forge Meadow requires softer ground and recent performances suggest she is further from her peak than the selection.
