Forecasts

Firebird (8/11), Dance Night Andday (9/2), Ano Syra (13/2), Oujda (10/1), Navassa Island (16/1), Ostraka (20/1), Little Queenie (20/1), Shandy (25/1), Elinor Dashwood (80/1)

Verdict

FIREBIRD arrives on the up and looks the way to go on the back of her excellent Naas second last time out. Recent Leopardstown scorer Dance Night Andday rates a big threat though, with Oujda and Little Queenie also in the picture.
