Forecasts

An Taibhse (13/8), Rebel Ivy (11/2), April's Moon (11/2), Annieguire (9/1), China Princess (10/1), Howaya Aoife (10/1), Lotus Hill (11/1), Barangarou (16/1), Miss Anfield (18/1), Cooline Bluebell (28/1), Little Mar (33/1), Paddy Wickla (33/1), It's All Mercy (80/1)

Verdict

There's likely more to come from AN TAIBHSE on the back of her Kilbeggan maiden success 4 weeks ago and she's taken to follow up now handicapping. Annieguire could pose a threat if returning to the level of her penultimate Fairyhouse third, while Rebel Ivy shaped quite well on her Gowran handicap debut and could also have a say if turning up here rather than Tipperary.

  1. AN TAIBHSE (IRE)
  2. ANNIEGUIRE (IRE)
  3. REBEL IVY (IRE)
