Forecasts

Coole Cherry (4/7), Ta Na La (9/2), Glendars Mahler (11/2), Air Drop (9/1), Portville (14/1), Stormie Outlook (22/1), Marvel Star (28/1), Comeragh Belle (200/1), Going Easy (200/1), One For Mick (200/1)

Verdict

TA NA LA paid late on for matching strides with the winner for a long way at Kilbeggan last month and certainly has a race of this nature within her compass judged on that performance, so she gets the nod. Coole Cherry has shown a fair level of ability in bumpers and will be suited by this slightly stiffer test now hurdling, with Air Drop also feared.

  1. TA NA LA (USA)
  2. AIR DROP (IRE)
  3. COOLE CHERRY (IRE)
