Forecasts

Mystical Goddess (5/2), Cloonainra (10/3), Zenta (4/1), Me Wee Bonnie Lass (5/1), Enjoy The Dream (13/2), Speculatrix (10/1), Bynx (20/1), Costanuci (20/1)

ME WEE BONNIE LASS offered something to work on sent chasing after 9 months off when third at Killarney in May and is preferred to form-pick Zenta, who has something to prove after 3 poor runs. Speculatrix won in good style on her second chase start at Downpatrick and is another to consider.
