Forecasts

Carried (2/1), Downthecellar (11/4), Port Rashid (5/1), Shantou Sisu (10/1), Carnet De Stage (11/1), Fightfortheroses (12/1), Thisonesforollie (16/1), Automatic (16/1), Schmidt (20/1), Champions Hill (28/1), Gray Duke (33/1), Galros Jimmy (40/1), British Art (50/1), Quill Road (66/1)

CARRIED won with any amount in hand at Wexford a couple of days ago and, if he's come out of the race sound, he should be difficult to stop under a penalty with a visor back on. Should he underperform, then Downthecellar looks the likeliest to capitalise following his recent Limerick success, although Thisonesforollie isn't a forlorn hope on the back of an encouraging return.
