Forecasts

For The Cause (11/4), Should've (3/1), What Next (10/3), Listening Mode (6/1), Emancipator (15/2), Marourou (9/1), Supreme Joy (11/1), Hihoharry (14/1), Marriage Ring (14/1), Duke Of Doyen (20/1), Ballynagran (22/1), Mitchell One (25/1), Motion In Limine (28/1), My Little Lily (28/1), Carols Wish (33/1), Larry Looby (33/1), Sight Nor Seen (40/1), Captain Cal (50/1), Rocky Stream (50/1), Ballyearl (50/1), The Dugout (80/1)

A decidedly weak contest in which it's worth chancing SHOULD'VE, who switches to hurdling after offering minor promise in a bumper at Killarney. Those with hurdling experience haven't achieved much, so Marourou could pose the main threat after showing something in points.
