Forecasts

Nos Na Gaoithe (30/100), Agritime (5/2), Maggie Barrett (4/1), Fanoir (5/1), Oilean Ghaofar (9/1), Rocco Bay (12/1), Jesina (16/1), Tracey Bubbles (18/1), Conor's Gift (28/1), Ramble On Muller (33/1), Diamondinthemud (40/1), Belle Na Bann (50/1), Ballygill Roco (50/1), Ard Monarch (125/1)

AGRITIME was well backed and duly showed plenty to work on when runner-up at Roscommon last month, only losing out to one with valuable experience under her belt. She may take some stopping with the promise of better to come. Fanoir picked up where she left off when finishing second on return/yard debut at Galway last week but she may have to settle for silver again, ahead of Nos Na Gaoithe.
