Forecasts

Let Me Pass (3/1), Shackleton Hero (10/3), Lightning Boltz (10/3), Oh Say (4/1), Valour (11/2), Aleksey Tolstoy (14/1), Pita Pinta (40/1), Al Rafiq (40/1), Captain Rock (50/1)

There was plenty to like about SHACKLETON HERO's debut run at Dundalk recently and he's taken to improve past the more established Lightning Boltz. Mick Halford's Let Me Pass may prove best of the rest.
