Forecasts

Frontal Assault (6/4), Cask Mate (5/2), O Connell Street (10/3), Gua Du Large (9/2), Double Jemmy (11/2), Grange Island (14/1), Genie Makker (20/1), Good World (25/1), Carheenlea Blues (25/1), Orcadian Symphony (33/1), Present Rock (50/1), Deramore Park (66/1), Hidden Marble (66/1), Knockraha Katie (80/1), Union Park (100/1), Furkhan (100/1), Border Battle (125/1), Frankfurter (125/1), Thedapperdoyen (200/1)

DOUBLE JEMMY clearly derived plenty from his opening effort over hurdles when runner-up in a big-field novice at Down Royal in March and with further progress on the cards, is marginally preferred to O Connell Street on debut for Gordon Elliott. The market may help assess Cask Mate on his return for nearly 3 years off.
