Forecasts

Irish Ambassador (9/4), Foreign Legion (4/1), Kudbegood (11/2), Jm Barrie (9/1), Neyland (10/1), Gormanston (12/1), Enchanted One (12/1), Power Of Lazarus (14/1), Knock Flyer (16/1), Daarem (16/1), Muraahin (18/1), Patchouli (25/1), Miss Sassyboots (28/1), Three Sevens (28/1), Little Camacho (50/1)

A deserved first taste of success could be on the cards for IRISH AMBASSADOR, who has shaped well both starts over this C&D since returning from a break in September and he has been handed a good draw in stall two. Jm Barrie hasn't been treated so kindly by the draw, but he is feared nonetheless, while Knock Flyer and Kudbegood are others to consider.
