Forecasts

Coole Arcade (10/3), Delightfantastic (9/2), Westy Fox (11/2), Hard Rain (13/2), Darkened (13/2), Where's Bunny (13/2), Tuckmill (9/1), Ocojohn (12/1), Go Gill Go (14/1), Gallic Boy (14/1), Early Arrival (16/1), Happy Company (25/1), Windsor Diamond (25/1), Sellarbridge (25/1), Toor Moment (28/1), Automatic (33/1), Longhouse Force (33/1), Charlie Siringo (40/1)

Many in with chances but WHERE'S BUNNY shaped as if better for the run sporting a first-time hood when fourth at Tramore last month. That outing should've blown away any cobwebs and she can double her career tally. Coole Arcade ran poorly at Gowran in January but he's feared most if able to put that effort behind him for the Henry de Bromhead/Rachael Blackmore combination, ahead of Tuckmill.
