Forecasts

Madhmoon (6/5), Broome (7/2), Masaff (7/1), Cosmic Horizon (7/1), Pythion (8/1), Sydney Opera House (9/1), Western Australia (11/1), Copia Verborum (33/1), Channel Stuffer (66/1)

Verdict

It might be worth taking a chance on BROOME after he fluffed his lines at York last month. He had looked like a smart prospect when winning at Galway and he's the first string of Aidan O'Brien's trio. Madhmoon is an obvious danger after his impressive debut while Cosmic Horizon was impressive at Roscommon and makes each-way appeal.
