Forecasts

Gwan Tadhg (9/4), Mullins Cross (3/1), Leroy Leroy (3/1), Prince Of Air (4/1), Barbaha Queen (4/1), Be My Hero (5/1), Portarlington (7/1), David's Lad (9/1), I Am The Sea (12/1), Howsthewoman (14/1), Self Assessed (16/1), No Show (20/1), O'Faolains Glory (20/1), Magnetic Pulse (20/1), The Cooleen (25/1)

Verdict

GWAN TADHG has gone up 7 lb for his breakthrough success at Downpatrick last weekend but he may well prove equal to the task if able to build on that performance. Leroy Leroy is second choice on the back of a decent effort at Kilbeggan and Barbaha Queen may also have a part to play if, as expected, she comes on for her recent reappearance spin at the same course. I Am The Sea is a potential improver now pitched into a handicap in this sphere and he also enters calculations.

  1. GWAN TADHG (IRE)
  2. LEROY LEROY
  3. BARBAHA QUEEN (IRE)
