Forecasts

Mr Josiey Wales (4/6), Part Time Farmer (11/4), Dr Shirocco (11/2), Imperial Tune (8/1), Desertmore Glen (12/1), Flying Colum (14/1), War Down Under (18/1), Glen Wyllin (20/1), Mrs Watson (22/1), Command Chain (25/1), Better Than Heaven (25/1), Raven Queen (25/1), Champ Royal (40/1), Councilor Dick (40/1), Along Long Story (50/1), Hill Of Hope (50/1), Stow's Pearl (50/1), Imperial Imp (80/1), Get Connected (80/1), Patriot Poet (125/1)

A very weak event that should go the way of MR JOSIEY WALES after an excellent second at Naas last month. Part Time Farmer is a big threat on form but is unlikely to participate having run on Saturday, so newcomer War Down Under is the most feasible alternative.
