Forecasts

O' Bon Pardon (13/8), Butchers Bill (4/1), Leah's Contessa (5/1), James The Brave (13/2), The Dawn (8/1), Hei (14/1), I Ballyadam Moon (18/1), Heather View (25/1), Kilda Kelle (33/1), He Might Be Lucky (33/1), Bleu Lagune (50/1), Catch Yourself On (150/1), Set My Love Free (200/1)

Hard to make a compelling case for any of these but O'BON PARDON upped his game when fourth at Naas and that suggests he's the one to beat. Leah's Contessa is a big danger on her debut form, with Butchers Bill another to consider.
