Forecasts

Tullyhill (1/1), Asian Master (11/4), What's Up Darling (15/2), Mistergif (15/2), Lisnagar Fortune (8/1), Antrim Coast (14/1), Westport Cove (16/1), Harry Des Ongrais (20/1), Shanbally Kid (33/1), Catch The Beast (66/1), Kazakh D'arthel (150/1), Nancy Miles (150/1), In The Trenches (150/1)

TULLYHILL long appealed as the type to flourish over the larger obstacles and duly made an encouraging chase debut here last month. With improvement anticipated, he is taken to open his account in this discipline. Asian Master and What's Up Darling rate the principal dangers in what should prove an informative contest.
