Forecasts

Kerkiyra (13/8), Red Azalea (10/3), Sierra Nevada (4/1), Galleria Borghese (6/1), Forever And Always (15/2), Frankelstein (12/1), Opulent (12/1), Goonyaboyya (18/1), Silent Prayer (18/1), Porto Cervo (20/1), Lightship (20/1), Lost (40/1), Keep An Eye Out (50/1), Ysobel (66/1), Lucky Mascot (80/1), Girl Crush (100/1), Lovesome Dove (150/1), Rotolo (150/1)

Cases can be made for several but KERKIYRA gets the nod to make a winning reappearance and go one better than on her final couple of starts as a 2-y-o. Sierra Nevada heads up the dangers having shown a good deal more than first time up when third at Leopardstown last month, with Opulent and Galleria Borghese also fancied to feature.
