Forecasts

Easca Peasca (11/10), Knight Of Malta (6/1), Gallaside (15/2), Clever Currency (17/2), Raamez (9/1), Buzz Light (10/1), Bonnie Kellie (11/1), Slieve Bearnagh (12/1), One Horse Army (25/1), Powerful Blue (50/1), Winstons Corner (50/1), I'vedoneitall (50/1), Tidal Racer (66/1), Hoganville (125/1), Avondale Smiles (125/1), Unforgetable Colt (150/1), Windmill Lady (200/1)

EASCA PEASCA came on plenty for his hurdling debut when runner-up at Gowran, pulling well clear of the rest, and has a good chance of going one place better. Clever Currency showed much more than previously second at Cork and rates the main threat ahead of Knight of Malta.
