Forecasts

Made For You (3/1), Folks Like Us (10/3), Cilluirid (4/1), Kymata (7/1), Hitman Fred (8/1), Sarvi (17/2), Achill Road Boy (17/2), Izzy's Champion (10/1), Vintage Glen (12/1), Ofcourseiwill (16/1), Green Zone (20/1), Royal Flush (33/1), Raemoir (33/1), Cully Mac (33/1)

CILLUIRID pulled well clear with a progressive sort when runner-up at Hexham 19 days ago, so there is a lot to like about his claims, despite a 6 lb rise. Made For You was getting the hang of things when last seen and could easily have more to offer, so he's greatly respected, while Kymata may prove best of the rest.
