Forecasts

Ragmans Corner (11/4), Away To Milan (11/4), Royal Time (11/2), Tuckmill (11/2), Makfils (9/1), Glorytogod Tom (10/1), Boston Bongo (10/1), Boghlone Honey (14/1), Jarvis Brook (18/1), Johngus (33/1)

RAGMANS CORNER rates the pick of these weights on the back of his very good Fairyhouse second so gets tthe vote. Tuckmill heads the list of dangers back in this sphere with Royal Time, Jarvis Brook and Away To Milan all in the mix too.
