Forecasts

Dreamz (7/4), Rotten Row (3/1), Silver Breeze (7/2), Steel Queen (5/1), Hermin D'oudairies (9/1), Fierce Weather (20/1), Polo Express (25/1), Glenview (50/1), Saved By The River (80/1), Aoibheann Na Ngall (150/1), Fairwood Lingo (150/1)

ROTTEN ROW makes appeal on paper for a yard that has an excellent record in bumpers, so he's taken to get off to the perfect start. Dreamz wasn't disgraced thrown in at the deep end on her debut at Punchestown and may build on that opening effort, with Silver Breeze another respected newcomer.
