Forecasts

Moskovite (9/4), Le Hachette (11/4), Ar Eagla Na Heagla (5/1), Shimmer And Shine (6/1), Lucky Phil (7/1), She's Made It (12/1), Belle West (14/1), A Legal Beauty (50/1), Mistheatre (66/1), Geoffrey's Girl (100/1)

Verdict

Difficult to ignore the chances of 127-rated novice hurdler, MOSKOVITE who ran well in defeat in a couple of Grade 3 contests around February and March time. The daughter of Flemensfirth can get off the mark on chasing debut here at the expense of potential improver, Ar Eagla Na Heagla and Shimmer And Shine who both have experience over fences. The J P McManus-owned, She's Made It and recent second of 13 at Roscommon, Le Hachette appear to be the most interesting newcomers.
  1. Moskovite
  2. Ar Eagla Na Heagla
  3. She's Made It
