Forecasts

Tooreen Angel (3/1), Sense Of Worth (7/2), Dream Tale (4/1), Astadash (13/2), Eagle's Flight (15/2), Blue Shadow (17/2), Blackstone Cliff (17/2), Longbourn (10/1), Dare To Flare (25/1), Ragtime Red (40/1)

TOOREEN ANGEL is thriving at the moment and she is difficult to oppose in her bid for the C&D hat-trick off just a 2 lb higher mark than her win here last month. Dream Tale won a competitive Leopardstown handicap last time and he has to be considered stepping up in trip. Longbourn holds solid each-way claims too.
