Forecasts

Jensons Joy (9/4), Teddy Boy (4/1), Pretty Boy Floyd (9/2), Mandolin Wind (5/1), Fool Proof (13/2), Pretty Smart (7/1), Ever Rock (11/1), Make A Promise (12/1), Too Hard To Hold (14/1), Dee Sprinter (16/1), Cactus Tree (20/1), All About Ivy (22/1), Hija De La Luna (22/1), Seven Worlds (25/1), Pride Of Pimlico (40/1), Bushtucker Trial (50/1), Anjika (200/1)

JENSONS JOY came close to landing a gamble at Fairyhouse on Tuesday and the hint should be taken if he's turned out again quickly off the same mark. Curragh scorer Pretty Boy Floyd can go well once more, while last year's winner Teddy Boy and Pretty Smart could be on the premises.
