Forecasts

Hotrocket (9/4), Final Voyage (7/2), Big Baby Bull (6/1), Red Heel (6/1), Vocal Studies (9/1), Spanish Tenor (12/1), Affogato (16/1), Apricot Twist (16/1), Silken Ladder (16/1), Benavente (20/1), Exquisite Acclaim (22/1)

The most appealing of these by some way is HOTROCKET, who shaped really well when fourth of 13 on his reappearance at Cork. He remains open to improvement and is probably capable of a good deal better than his current mark implies. Exquisite Acclaim could be the answer for forecast purposes, while recent Tipperary claimer winner Big Baby Bull and Spanish Tenor should both have a part to play.
