Forecasts

Get Smart (7/4), Belle West (6/1), Muyam Spirit (13/2), Thisonesforollie (17/2), Feel Des Mottes (9/1), Lily Trotter (10/1), Laureate (10/1), Mr Jacaranda (10/1), Chalky White (10/1), Itsalonglongroad (12/1), Moyode Lady (14/1), Bracka Lily (20/1), James Boru (25/1), Offshore Oscar (100/1), Zagnzig (125/1)

Not a strong race but GET SMART showed plenty on his second run back over fences at Tipperary after a long time off and looks the way to go in the hope he jumps a bit better this time. Muyam Spirit and Thisonesforollie are other likely contenders.
