Forecasts

Capture The Action (2/1), Not So Simple (10/3), Delirious Love (5/1), Rule Of June (7/1), Rathnaleen Tou (10/1), Daisy's Hollow (14/1), Fourina (16/1), Whoyakodding (20/1), Betterask Jj (28/1), Springcool Lady (28/1), Knock Na Rea (33/1), Padraic's Choice (33/1), The Diary Keeper (33/1), Gendarme (40/1), Long Island Jenn (40/1)

DELIRIOUS LOVE is potentially well treated starting out for a yard that do well with new recruits and he has to be the selection before market clues. Gowran winner Capture The Action and the unexposed Springcool Lady are a couple of the dangers.
