Forecasts

Sir Jack Yeats (11/4), Roevin Star (4/1), Garrai Phaidin (4/1), Presenting Julio (4/1), Caniwillyegiveme (8/1), Burndown (10/1), Cecil Corbett (12/1), Cadawill (12/1), Just Cause (14/1), Thats Mypresenting (14/1), Dushrembrandt (14/1), A Decent Excuse (14/1), Catalaunian Fields (16/1), Capture The Drama (25/1)

Fascinating race in the early stages with GARRAI PHAIDIN possibly taking the field along, with Sir Jack Yeats and Just Cause in behind. It is a course that historically favours front-runners so a chance will be taken with GARRAI PHAIDIN to enjoy a change of luck. Last month's course winner Thats Mypresenting can follow him home with Sir Jack Yeats feared now dropping in class following a bold run at Galway.
