Forecasts

The Names Jock (7/2), In From The Cold (9/2), Newgirlintown (9/2), Ultra Pride (7/1), Memyselfandmoi (15/2), Thefaithfulindian (9/1), Bring Us Paradise (10/1), Ivy Avenue (12/1), Blackpoint (12/1), Leagan Gaeilge (25/1), Sovereigns Bright (40/1), Satisfy (50/1)

IN FROM THE COLD is a consistent sort who goes well with ease underfoot so he is chanced to gain a fourth career win under a promising apprentice. Newgirlintown looks to be the biggest danger after her Navan win despite a 9 lb rise. The Names Jock has also been raised 9 lb for his win last time at Leopardstown but won't be far away if he comes here in the same form.
