Forecasts

Premium Package (5/2), West Cork Wildway (4/1), The Little Yank (7/1), Hewick (15/2), Streets Of Doyen (8/1), Balinaboola Steel (17/2), Pump Road (17/2), Metal Man (17/2), Basil's Boy (11/1), Oscar Montel (12/1), Jarob (14/1), Abraham (20/1), Brogine (25/1), Static Jack (25/1), Ashqar (25/1), The Gatechecker (28/1), Cash Me Outside (33/1), Oh'herewego (50/1), Lilshane (50/1)

STREETS OF DOYEN finished with a flourish at Punchestown last time and is worth chancing for a yard quickly among the winners here this week. Premium Package and Basil's Boy are next on the list, though reserve Hewick, seeking a hat-trick, would have a big shout if getting a run.
