Forecasts

Elite Des Mottes (3/1), Powerful Out (9/2), Dympnas Well (5/1), Close Enough (7/1), Kilbree Warrior (17/2), Bridge Street (10/1), That's Lifebuoy (14/1), Kingram Lady (18/1), Wicklow Flyer (18/1), Trans Wood (22/1), Lilly Banner (50/1), Achendar (66/1), She Might (66/1)

ELITE DES MOTTES arrives in good heart and could still have more to offer considering she pulled hard when third at Wexford 3 weeks ago. Dympnas Well resumed progress in comprehensive fashion on the same card and looks an obvious threat, while Bridge Street is a potential improver now handicapping.
