Forecasts

Independent Expert (9/4), Mary Salome (11/4), Operatic Artist (3/1), Silken Ladder (5/1), Mere Accountant (6/1), Lady Lunette (7/1)

None of these can be ruled out but OPERATIC ARTIST can race off the same mark as when a very good Leopardstown third so edges the vote. Mere Accountant is next on the list on the back of her good Naas fourth, with course-winner Mary Salome another in the mix in a competitve event.
