Forecasts

Olivia Valere (9/2), Wonder Spirit (5/1), She's Good Company (5/1), Jazz Dreamers (11/2), Classical Memories (13/2), Smaoineamh Sile (8/1), Business Speak (8/1), While You're Up (17/2), Catch Kodi (10/1), Derry Lad (11/1), Speedy Pix (20/1), Catherine Chroi (20/1), Aunty Ceily (25/1), Brightburn (33/1), All Down To Rosie (33/1), Moon Orchid (40/1), Kalu Pande (50/1), Special Protector (66/1), Zaralion (80/1), Nakao (125/1)

WONDER SPIRIT should be sharper with a recent comeback run behind him and could prove the answer to this very tricky handicap. Derry Lad made a solid start in handicaps when third at Tipperary in August so he's a possible threat if an outside stall isn't too much of an inconvenience. Jazz Dreamers and recent Curragh scorer Olivia Valere are also on the shortlist.
