Forecasts

Dewcup (11/8), My Mate Mozzie (7/4), Phoenix Cowboy (5/2), Weather Alert (6/1), Mig Des Taillons (11/1), No Memory (25/1), Balaclava (33/1), Grey Bear (150/1), Baby Bellini (200/1), Lancastria (200/1), Freds Honour (250/1)

MY MATE MOZZIE looked good when landing a big-field Punchestown bumper on Rules debut in April and is taken to make a successful start in this sphere, and preserve his unbeaten record in the process (also a winner of his sole start between the flags). Dual bumper/hurdles winner Dewcup is a much-respected main danger, while Phoenix Cowboy and Weather Alert can do battle for minor honours.
