Forecasts

Sea Music (5/4), Howaya C D And E (4/1), Ringdufferin (9/2), Clifftop (6/1), Luminous Light (8/1), Jay Jay Zee (9/1), Moon Rise Beauty (11/1), Thunder (14/1)

Verdict

LUMINOUS LIGHT was in the process of running a good race when coming down at the last at Ballinrobe last time and is taken to bounce back in style here. Clifftop is weighted to go well so rates the main danger ahead of Sea Music who has the scope for further progress.
