Forecasts

Cream Sparkles (15/8), Chicago Time (10/3), Helisone (4/1), Valley Breeze (6/1), Drifting Back (13/2), Cute Cherry (7/1), Will You Win (9/1), Samos Island (11/1), Opie Houdini (18/1), Mahler Mission (20/1), Synone (20/1), The Fairyhill Man (50/1)

CREAM SPARKLES gets the nod after an encouraging run at the Galway Festival. There's definitely a bigger performance in Cute Cherry so she's respected under Brian Cooper, while Valley Breeze and Helisone would also enter the reckoning if the betting speaks in their favour.
