Forecasts

Burning Lake (11/2), Adapt To Dan (11/2), Soineanta (6/1), Jack Berry House (7/1), True Conviction (15/2), Gormanston (10/1), Maccliff (11/1), Praying Mantis (12/1), International Lady (16/1), Hasanaat (16/1), Spirituoso (16/1), Tynamite (18/1), Overtake (18/1), Raffaello (20/1), Built For This (33/1), Ernest Loring (40/1), Milltown Lily (50/1)

A wide-open handicap with the vote in favour of ADAPT TO DAN. A winner at Bellewstown in July, he shaped better than the bare result when midfield in a big-field Galway handicap 3 weeks ago and another good showing is anticipated back on all-weather. Burning Lake and Overtake are a couple of others to consider.
