Forecasts

Rocky's Howya (11/4), Wasdale Park (3/1), Lord Schnitzel (5/1), Plan B (6/1), Moakland (13/2), My Immortal (7/1), Flurry Yeats (11/1), Double Jubilee (11/1), Dothislikethis (20/1), Knockiel Synge (40/1), Tracey Bubbles (150/1), Future Glory (150/1), Lanziano (250/1), Keeffelee (250/1)

The two with the most pressing claims are WASDALE PARK and Rocky's Howya. The latter would be tough to beat if able to reproduce the form of his Wexford second in April, but his recent efforts have not been so good and Wasdale Park, who has fewer miles on the clock and was better than he was able to show at Sligo last time, is marginally preferred. Plan B is best of the rest.
