Forecasts

Alexharwill (11/4), Tagg's Island (5/1), Galaxy Girl (8/1), Ardhill (8/1), Mezyan (17/2), Deo Bellator (9/1), Ringhill Lady (10/1), Pat's Pearl (16/1), Gone Galavanting (16/1), Lopito (16/1), Ask The Leader (20/1), Tonkinese (25/1), Bally Upper (25/1), Bronze Bull (25/1), Offaly Star (40/1), Lady Of The Sea (40/1), Semper Fidelis (80/1), Redwood Boy (80/1)

RINGHILL LADY was held back by a few mistakes here when last seen in June but there's still mileage in this mark if she can cut the errors out. With that in mind, she is preferred in favour of Alexharwill and Tagg's Island.
