Forecasts

Roxette (10/3), Gold Allure (7/1), Kendred Soul (15/2), Ice Cold In Alex (8/1), Zephron (10/1), Howling Wolf (10/1), Stately Home (10/1), Midnight Fire (11/1), Golden Valour (11/1), Oh Purple Reign (12/1), Atlas (16/1), Kodiac Prince (18/1), Rocky Dreams (25/1), Aloysius Lilius (28/1), Madaket Mystery (28/1), Misty At Sea (33/1), Bardo Contiguo (40/1), Good Job Power (66/1), Capel At Dawn (150/1)

ROXETTE has the potential to build on her Cork handicap debut success 11 days ago so can make light of a rise in the weights. Zephron made a promising return to action when fourth at Navan last month and rates an obvious threat. Ice Cold In Alex is well treated based on the form he showed on turf last summer so is also on the shortlist.
