Forecasts

Irish Chief (6/5), Stalingrad (11/4), Shikoko (7/2), Tashgheel (9/1), Moving For Gold (14/1), Dark Matter (25/1), We're On The Way (50/1)

SHIKOKO didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fifth at Navan last time and can open his account here with improvement in the pipeline. Aidan O'Brien's fair performer Irish Chief rates the obvious danger, with Stalingrad also sure to make his presence felt in an open maiden.
