Forecasts

Tout Est Permis (15/8), Dont Kick Nor Bite (7/2), Surf Instructor (7/2), Nobody Home (6/1), Georges Conn (12/1), He Rock's (14/1), Mick The Jiver (16/1), Aranhill Chief (20/1), Heist (25/1)

Verdict

The solid and consistent, J P McManus-owned, DONT KICK NOR BITE can continue his burgeoning chasing career here following a win at Roscommon and finishing 7L ahead of the rest when a runner-up at Punchestown this month. The Henry De Bromhead yard have a good record at this meeting in recent years can prove to be the biggest danger with Surf Instructor. Mick The Jiver and Tout Est Permis, on stable debut are deserving of consideration.
