Forecasts

Morraman (11/4), Smokey The Bandit (16/5), Cooldine Bog (7/2), Angel of Harlem (5/1), Coolbane Boy (11/2), Court Dreaming (22/1)

COOLDINE BOG's latest effort wasn't overly inspiring, but he wouldn't be the first to be perked up by the switch to Fergal O'Brien's yard and the hint should be taken if this Irish import is strong in the market. Morraman is 2-3 at this course and may be the one to capitalise should Cooldine Bog fail to fire, though it's also possible to construct a case for Angel of Harlem.
