Forecasts

Coko Beach (13/8), Forza Milan (11/4), Eleazar Des Neiges (5/1), Antey (5/1), Ministerforsport (13/2), Argumental (25/1), Blue Markie (150/1), All The Best (150/1), Full Noise (250/1)

ANTEY's form figures over fences doesn't inspire confidence but he shaped as if needing the run at Gowran and has the ability to go close in this. Coko Beach was beaten only by a smart sort at Naas and is the obvious threat ahead of Forza Milan.
